    Converting USD to other currencies

    Hi everyone. I am not proficient at all in Excel, so I need very step by step instructions. I have a spreadsheet and column D represents prices in USD's. I need to convert this column to GBP. I found instructions, see link:
    http://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-Curr...icrosoft-Excel

    This did not work. Then, if it did work, how would I apply this formula to my spreadsheet?

    Thank you!

    Do you want to take the values in Column D and convert them (in Col D)? or convert them in a different column (e.g. E)?

    If in column D. In a blank cell, put the conversion factor (today it's 0.615)
    Copy that cell (Control - C is the shortcut)
    Highlight/select your data in Column D
    Edit>Paste Special> Multiply
    Change your formatting if necessary.
    Does that work for you?

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires

    Thank you so much for your reply!

    Column D currently has prices in USD's. I want to convert column D to GBP. I would like to set this up so that every time the worksheet is opened, it is refreshed with the current conversion rate.

    Thank you!
