Updating Rates Automatically

To update exchage rates automatically, choose Update Rates from the File menu and open the Update Rates dialog.

The Update Rates dialog lists all Euro Assistant Pro non-EMU currencies (predefined and custom) and their euro exchange rates.

Check the currencies whose euro exchange rates you want to update: to check all currencies, click All, to deselect them all, click None (the Update button is dimmed in this case).

If you want to update rates using the Daily euro foreign exchange reference rates published by the European Central Bank, select European Central Bank in the Use rates published by pop-up menu. If you prefer to use the Daily Noon Rates published by the Bank of Canada or the Representative Exchange Rates for Selected Currencies published by the International Monetary Fund, select Bank of Canada or International Monetary Fund in the pop-up menu.

Click Update to establish the Internet connection and update exchange rates. Click Cancel if you want to stop the connection attempt and, once the connection is established, Stop if you want abort the update and disconnect.

Euro Assistant Pro needs Open Transport 1.1.1 or higher to update rates over the Internet. If you want Euro Assistant Pro to establish the PPP connection, you will also need Remote Access (OT/PPP if you are using Mac OS 8.1 or lower) or any other Open Transport compatible PPP tool.

Notice that if you use a non-Apple PPP, Euro Assistant Pro may refuse to dial-up and/or disconnect. In this case establish and/or terminate the connection manually using your PPP tool.

Once the retrieval of euro exchange rates is accomplished, the Rate column will list the new euro rates and the Log column will display the result of each update.

A successful update will be indicated by the message "updated", whereas an unsuccessful update will be signalled by the corresponding error message (rate not available, invalid rate, ISO code not available, server error, proxy error).

Notice that once your 15-day trial period has expired Euro Assistant Pro will stop updating rates over the Internet. To start updating rates automatically again register Euro Assistant Pro.
