Perhaps it was something you found/downloaded from the internet?

Obviously, many different people have written programs to convert between metric & imperial systems over the years, it's a common need. I've not heard of anything built-in, and the fact that you remember the language the program was written in suggests that you were working with the source code.  (Otherwise why would the language matter?)

What I recall is something like the CONVERT function in Excel. But I cannot
find anything in the API list or by asking Google.


Could be that, as I said, I imprinted a memory that did not exist. Or I may
just be overwhelmed with data and cannot see the tree for the forest.


Can anyone put me out of my misery?
