.NET Compact Framework - Project A: Currency Converter

Overview This paper shows how to develop a simple currency converter using the .NET Compact Framework's built-in controls. For simplicity, the sample application is limited to three currencies: U.S. Dollar, CNY (Chinese Yuan), and Singapore Dollar. This application downloads the currency exchange rates from a web service when the application is first used. The application stores the rates in an XML document for subsequent usage.
