There is no standard function - since the rate changes it need to be a service, rather than a function, or you would always be using the rate on the day the function was written.

I haven't tried it, but there is an article here which should help: Simple Class to get Currency Exchange Rates[^]

Isn't that obvious? How about having a library with the function deprecated every day? Good answer, my 5.

OriginalGriff is right, it needs to be a service.The service will continually check currency values online.To that service, you can utilize this online converter from google and use its values.

If could be used with System.NET.HttpWebRequest to send request and get response, process it.
