提供currency rates for free的服务有很多。
如果您的目标是使用 UDF 获取/转换费率,请考虑缓存费率以避免因请求过多而被服务启动。
这是一个 UDF,它使用缓存有效地转换具有来自 European Central Bank 的汇率的货币(每日更新):

' UDF to convert a currency using the daily updated rates fron the European Central Bank '
' =ConvCurrency(1, "USD", "GBP") '
''
Public Function ConvCurrency(Value, fromSymbol As String, toSymbol As String)
Static rates As Collection, expiration As Date ' cached / keeps the value between calls '
If DateTime.Now > expiration Then
Dim xhr As Object, node As Object
expiration = DateTime.Now + DateTime.TimeSerial(1, 0, 0) ' + 1 hour '
Set rates = New Collection
rates.Add 1#, "EUR"
Set xhr = CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")
xhr.Open "GET", "https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml", False
xhr.Send
For Each node In xhr.responseXML.SelectNodes("//*[@rate]")
rates.Add Conversion.Val(node.GetAttribute("rate")), node.GetAttribute("currency")
Next
End If
ConvCurrency = (Value / rates(fromSymbol)) * rates(toSymbol)
End Function
