Thanks for the swift response.

I read the multiple currency chapter twice and I still don't see why Finance::Quote does not update the other FX rates.

So, if I change my base currency to ZAR, I see the updates FX rates with ZAR as the base rate, but e.g. the GBP/EUR FX rate is not updated. Is that really the intended behaviour?

Thanks
G.
