Hi Friends,
I am developeing an application in which I am required to update Currency rates
i.e.
INR - USD
INR - SGD (singapore dollar)

I have only these three currenicies for which I have to maintain the records..
As currency rates keep on changing from seconds to seconds, I also want to store those LIVE rates in my DB.

It is possible using Web Service, but I have never used and am not at all familiar with Web Services.

So could you please help me out with some examples ??
A code snippet will be very helpful...

Thanks,
Lok..
