Hi, :)
Does anyone knows if Vista has an in-build utility for metric conversion ?
I've been looking under accessories but couldn't find anything..

I see this thread is a few days old... I could not find one with Vista... but there are plenty of Freeware applications you can download ... which i'm sure you've already looked into.

Thanks tcs for your reply! :)

Yes I did find a good freeware metric converting programme thanks to Leftwood in another forum. But he thought it being wise to ask over here if Vista has an inbuild one..
He didn't know as he has an older system.

I'll give the link through for in case it would be useful to some else;
