Details

This function converts the 3-digit kommune number to a text corresponding to which of the five regions in Denmark a kommune belongs to. The function is adapted from a DST SAS-format and the conversions are valid from 2007. There is no very easy way to convert older kommune-numbers to the current regions since some kommune were split in the processof developing the five regions
