Me again... It seems that the symbol for Canadian dollar is not C but Can$ or C$. :lol:

And from this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currency_pair:

Hi Djobydjoba,

I think I'm okay letting that stay as C in our documentation example. It conveys the idea I think, and is consistent with the 1 letter symbol for display purposes.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Just watched the Multiple Currency tutorial video. Nice! But IMHO you should use the XXX/YYY standard for the exchange rate names, instead of your non standard YYY->XXX format. That is, in the video, USD/CAD instead of CAD->USD.

Really, for exchange rates the XXX/YYY standard is used by all financiers / investors around the world!

Regards.

Hi Djobydjoba,

Thanks for the feedback. I definitely should have done that... I probably won't re-record it for just that change though.
Thanks,
Mark
