The EUROCURR function converts one European currency to another and
returns a value. Here are some examples ...

1 . To convert from DEM to EUR
  data _null_;
    amount=eurocurr(1,'dem','eur');
    put amount= ;
  run;

If from-currency-code has a blank value, EUROCURR converts currency from
Euros to the currency of the specific European country that you specify.

For more information see
http://www.sas.com/rnd/base/early-access/euro-support/a001648135.htm

2. To convert from EUR to DEM
  data _null_;
    amount=eurocurr(1,'eur','dem');
    put amount= ;
  run;

If to-currency-code has a blank value, EUROCURR converts currency from
the specific European country that you specify to Euros.

3. Exchange rates ...
  Rates were fixed for some countries on 1Jan1999 but can be altered for
others by editing the file stored under the fileref EURFRTBL.
  data _null_; file eurfrtbl;
    input; put _infile_; datalines;
  EURFRDKK=3.75
  EURFRCHF=3
  run;

Dear All,

could someone pass on the recent posting (possibly from Phil Mason)
about EURO- conversion which I seem to have inadvertently deleted.

If I remember rightly, there were very useful formats and informats
mentioned.

Many thanks for your help.

Yours,
