Create a Live Currency Converter in Excel using Data Types

Whether you’re managing your online spending or a global project, these days there's a good chance you’ll need to convert values from one currency to another.

This video shows you how to create a currency converter right inside Excel and as a bonus, I'll show you a brand new feature that automatically keeps the data up-to-date!

If your version of Excel includes the Currency or Stock Data Type (check the Data Ribbon) then you're good to go. This is just one way to create a currency converter in Excel. I'll show you another method in a future video.
