I'd look for a *transparent* choice of services (e.g. xmethods, Yahoo, xe) with a unified API; historic lookups (i.e. what was the GBP:EUR exchange rate on 2004-01-01); getting a list of available currencies from the current service; the ability to feed in the following: getPrice(12.00, 'GBP', 'USD'); to get the current value of GBP12.00 in USD. I don't know if all these features are supported, but that's what I'd want. Cheers, David Grant -- David Grant http://www.grant.org.uk/
