i don't know how the function Hvis() works. so, i will take another
approache.
first of all, make a exchange rate table containing country code and
exchange rate in anywhere you like. e.g. in range G5:H8. let G5 to G8 be
country code,  e.g. D in D5, E in G6, U in G7, G in G8. let H5 to H8 be
exchange rate, e.g. exchange rate from DKK to DKK in H5, exchange rate from
DKK to EURO in H6, exchange rate from DKK to USD in H7, exchange rate from
DKK to GBP in H8. next using function match(), find country code's position
in the table, then using function index(), you can find exchange rate in the
table.

so, formula in e5 is like this
=(A5*B5*D5)*INDEX(G$5:H$8,MATCH(C5,G$5:G$8,0),2)

does this works?
or if it's not the result what you want. ignore this article.
sorry for my poor English.

p.s.,
i think exchange rate which you discribe above seems to be incorrect to me.
for example, if exchange rate from DKK to GBP is 10,10, i think it meams
that 1DKK=10,10GBP. but the relation between GKK and GBP is
1DKK=(1/10,10)GBP -> 1GBP=10,10DKK, i think. my misunderstanding? then very
sorry.
