Hi
Happy New Year

I'm looking for a add on to crystal to be able to convert currency from around the world  back to pounds

I need to be able to pull from a db, a field that holds a number that is the relevant price for that country and then create a formular that will look at the add on and based upon another field with the db and convert it to pounds.

any ideas

How up to date do you need the information to be?  I mean, in general, this is a very simple two-column table.  The first column is the currency, and the second column is the exchange rate.  Do a lookup and multiply, and you're done.

The tricky bit is that those exchange rates change very rapidly.  Are you looking for a product that keeps up with the changes, and feeds the information to your database automatically?
