Actually, I found a very cunning way to do this.
I
found a site where you can download an XML file of the NZ$'s rate. Unfortunitly,
it goes back to 1994 or something (881KB) , but when its downloaded, I let the
parsing happend so I end up with just the values, and I know how many values
there are, so I jump to the end one, and thats the latest value, then I just do
the maths from there.
I am
just using the "MSXML2.DOMDocument" object in an ASP page which is where I want
to use it, and it seems to work just fine !
BUT,
this is prob. not ideal, so if anyone know of any site as per my original
question, I would still like to hear.
Thanks, Jeremy

Subject: [DUG-Offtopic] currency onvertersHi All.I am interested to know if anyone has seen a currency converter that you can pass a value to and the currency to convert to and from, that returns the converted amount?What I am looking at is (sorry this is via a web page), passing the info required, then having that come back converted so I can put it into a variable that then populated some data into another webpage.the idea is, person comes to the website, then they select the item to purchase, then the page passes the value to a converter script somewhere, which returns the value, this value is passed to another page, and then used on that page.the idea is, show NZ $$ prices, but have it converted to US$ so that I dont have to wathc the news at night and then alter the prices on the webpage :-)Jeremy
