The fastest way I know of, which is how I do it, is using Google. Just do a search for something like 40 usd in eur and it'll pop up with a currency converter.

A while ago I made a little app which would do this, but I thought it would not have been useful. Anyway here's the link.
converter.zip
When you run the program it will download a rates.txt file  which contains the rates data.
The program has 2 combo box fields where the rates are stored, and an edit box where you can insert the amount.
The conversion result might not be accurate.
Also if you wish to retrieve the latest currencies there is a button which allows you to download them.
Have fun, and let me know if you enconter any error.

Sorry for the double post. I currently do not have a website where to host it for you thus I'll have to use a dropbox link. Hope I can fix this soon.

which error are you getting? Something a long the lines of fatal error? Or did you get an error log? Because I am managing to run the executable just fine.

I would highly recommend fixer.io as your currency converter. The prices are fair and it works via an HTTP/HTTPS API.

At the time I had to use exchangerates.io because I really didn't have nothing to pay with. I suppose though I could try to see if I have enough money to pay fixer.io.

@9, their prices are cheap. You could easily do it.

10, not easily, as my financial state does not actually allow me to, but yeah, I got your point.
