    Source for Currency Exchange Rates?

    I'm hoping someone on the list has already dealt with this problem. :-)

    I used to MvCALL a page at a particular site in order to harvest foreign
    currency rates. Unfortunately, that site no longer provides that
    information. In looking for alternatives, it seems that no one offers
    the sort of information that used to be available - a list of all
    currencies and their exchange rates.

    I can find pages with the "top 6" currencies. I've found a page at the
    federal reserve bank that lists the major currencies and the cable
    exchange rates, but those aren't quite the same as the standard exchange
    rates.

    Anyone know of a site where this information is available? Or if not a
    site, a means for obtaining the information via the Internet?

    - Bill

    Somebody once mentioned this to me. I haven't tried it, but from a
    quick look at te FAQ, it seems promising:

      Thanks for all the suggestions! The best solution for me was

      www.globeinvestor.com

      It requires a double-MvCall - first to search for the latest Foreign
      Exchange article, then to parse that article - and it doesn't list the
      currency abbreviations, but it has everything else I needed.'
