Subject:      Xrate Data
 
Does anyone know of an exchange rate article/program/compiler that
would eliminate the need for scrolling through reels and reels of
the Wall Street Journal/New York Times etc. to cumulate exchange
rate data?
 
Recently I had to compile some for my Collection Mangement Officer
(who also happens to be my boss), which was relatively easy to do
since we had two or three years worth of data on slips in the department
but we had never put them in a spreadsheet. It occurred to me (surprise,
surprise) that it would be really nice if there were a source that
had cumulations of exchange rate data, showing average rates per
month/quarter/year etc. and % changes from one month/quarter/year to
the next.
 
Does such a thing exist? If it doesn't, would people (i.e., you guys)
like to see it exist?
