I have a table wich has fields in euros but the user also wants to edit
the fields in the local currency (and save the new value in euro). I
have a solution but i'm not completely satisfied with it. It involves
using the gettext (does the show the local value or not)  and the
BeforePost (save it always as euro) events.

if you have a better idea, please let me know


I'm using D4, aTTable and standard DBEdits.


Cheers Edward
