Using RegionInfo its possible to get the 3 letter ISO currency code, however
I cannot find any method to obtain the 3 digit ISO currency code.

For example:

GBP (3 letter ISO currency code)  = 826 (3 digit ISO currency code)

Is there any support in .NET 1.1 for this or do I have to write a mapping
class ?

Thanks in advance

Steve

Well, a google for GBP 826 site:microsoft.com produces no relevant
results, so it's either undocumented or non-existent.
