In my Programming class we are starting out by making a Currency Converter that will convert US to Canadian (Lep :wink:) and Canadian to US. Does anyone know how I could get it to go out to a site on the Net to get the conversion rate live? I don't have the code right in front of me but it's set up like this..

txtCANDollars = Format ( 1.5 * txtUSDollars, "currency" )

Etc.

I'll post all the code tomorrow when I can get it.

Thanks :)

Well poop.
Some little wigga deleted our program because they don't have the network set up properly yet. Get to code everything again, what fun!
Oh well; we've started working on other things now. Like a prog that converts minutes, hours, days, years, etc. into seconds! w00t

hehe, doing the net thing shouldn't be to hard.. just having the reliable source would be the hard part.

Here is how you would right a converter:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
If (Can.Text = True) Then
Us.Text = (1.5 * Can.Text)
Else
Can.Text = (Us.Text/1.5)
End If

The formulas are incorrect I am sure of (I'm not up to date with the currency convertation) but the code is correct.

End Sub

How would you set up the form and what things do you hvae to put on your form and what would you call the buttons/text boxes?
