I found that the Bank of Canada publishes a comma separated value (CSV) file of exchange rates for the Canadian dollar, every date at about 1:00 pm EST. I would love to be able to have that file downloaded daily (cron job), then parse the data for the most current rate for the US dollar. Would some [TCPConnect] code be able to accomplish this, or would this be more suited to a Unix shell script? BTW, here's a link to the CSV file if anyone's interested in looking: http://www.bankofcanada.ca/en/financial_markets/csv/exchange_eng.csv (WebDNA 4.5, OS X 10.2.8, Apache) ------ Daryl Mitchell, E-Business Specialist PW Group * Saskatoon, SK CANADA Tel: (306) 665-3557 * Fax (306) 664-0094 d.mitchell@pwgroup.ca * www.pwgroup.ca ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
