Re: Any interest in this type of currency mod?
For exporting to Quickbooks, there is a free add-on module for LiteCommerce that already does that.
LC was already purchased by the site owner so that's what I'm working with. I've found a nice php script to automatically grab currency rates from the European World Bank once a day (in EUR), so I can use that to have live currencies, but I'll have to convert the numbers to use the USD as the base currency, or rewrite the script for accepting data from a XML feed of USD rates (if I can find a free one of that -- the Federal Reserve Bank has decided to stop publishing rates since commercial ones are available). I'm delving into the LC developer kit to learn how to create a module for this currency converter too, so maybe I can offer this to other LC users.
Next would be then to create an LC mod for accepting product prices in different currencies (should be straight forward if it works as I imagine it), and using the currency converter mod to find out what that is in my USD base currency to update that.
