Introduction

Issue that the hotfix package fixes

This hotfix fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
The Cypriot pound was replaced by the euro as the official currency of the Republic of Cyprus on January 1, 2008. The irrevocable fixed exchange rate is CYP 0.585274 per EUR 1.00. The Excel 2003 Euro Currency Tools add-in does not include this exchange rate.

This hotfix resolves this issue by adding the new fixed exchange rate to the Euro Currency Tools add-in.
