Exclude members from a scope - MDX SSAS

Question

Hi all,
I'm just beginning with MDX so the answer may be obvious...
I'm trying to do a currency conversion with an MDX statement in my Cube SSAS 2012.
Here is my script :
       SCOPE( LEAVES([Entity]) );
SCOPE( LEAVES([Time]) );
SCOPE( LEAVES([Currency]));
SCOPE( [Account].[Account].[Total ACCOUNT].members)
THIS = ([Measures].[Value],[Currency].[Currency].[Local])*([Measures].[Value],[Account].[Account].[Fx Rate]);
END SCOPE;
END SCOPE;
END SCOPE;
END SCOPE;
The problem is I want to exclude frome the scope Currency my local Currency in order to make the conversion only if a currency (€,$, £) is selected.
I tried the following syntax but it always return a "MDX script is not valid" :
SCOPE( LEAVES([Currency], Except (LEAVES([Currency],[Currency].[Currency].[Local]);
SCOPE( [Measures].[Value] , Except ([Currency].[Currency].members,[Currency].[Currency].[Local]);
SCOPE( [Measures].[Value] , Except (LEAVES([Currency],[Currency].[Currency].[Local]);
SCOPE( LEAVES([Currency] - [Currency].[Currency].[Local]);
Could you please help me with this ? Thanks.

Hi MNelane,
Please try to use the following MDX command:
Scope( Leaves([Date]) , Except([Currency].[Currency].Members, [Currency].[Currency].[Local));
