Hello All,

Anyone out there modified their Ebase to deal with dual currency?  

I've working with a group now that works across-the-border with Canada and accepts 
both donations and program fees in USD and CAD.  No problem to mark the individual 
payments with the appropriate currency.  The trick is how to aggregate and do other 
calculations when you have two different units.  So I've put in a changable exchange 
rate, and am planning on having Ebase convert all amounts to USD before aggregating.

I know how to do this, but wondering if anyone has traveled down this path before.  
There seems to be a lot to change to make the aggregation happen (find fields, 
reports, etc. etc. etc.) and would be nice to not have to hunt them all down.  Looking 
for words of wisdom from veterans.  

Also: anyone run Analyzer or ClickStats on Ebase 102 or 103 lately and would be 
willing to send me a copy of the resulting db?  (contact me off-list if so)

TIA much,
Matthew
