I would like to discuss with you about my idea regarding the "AUTOMATED ERROR CHECKING IN CALC" as the deadline for registrations are nearer - I would like to add the the automated error checking by ADDING DIFFERENT CURRENCIES BY AUTOMATICALLY CONVERTING THEM USING CURRENT CONVERSION RATES THROUGH INTERNET AND IF OFFLINE, THE USER HAS AN OPTION TO ADD MANUAL CONVERSION RATES OR TO USE THE PREVIOUS ONE
I doubt that such a currency conversion would be related to "automated error checking". The idea of the extended error-checking is that mixing currencies (or other unrelated/non-convertible units) of different types is not allowed, not automatic conversion. Note also that Calc has a CONVERT() function (unfortunately named identical but different to the Excel CONVERT() function, which currently is available as CONVERT_ADD()) that obtains it's conversion factors from configuration values. Your idea seems more suitable for an independent extension that obtains values from somewhere in the net and saves them to the conversion configuration or provides some currency conversion Add-In function(s), instead of wiring it into the core code.
