VERSION 2 available here with Chris's suggestions added :wink:
http://www.btinternet.com/~my.webs/Wood_Calculator/Wood_Calculator_2.exe
The changes are as follows:
I added the facility to enter imperial or metric dimension which you select from the drop down menu as you can see here:

I added the British Hardwoods price conversion on the CONVERT tab.

I used two drop-down lists to select their sizes, the upper drop-down is to select the vertical sizes from the BH table as you can see here

The lower drop-down is to select the horizontal sizes from the BH table (and so contains more entries) as you can see here

To use this convertor, you must first enter the price provided on the BH website in the left hand textbox and then use the two drop-down lists to enter the dimensions*. The price per cu ft will be automatically calculated as soon as all 3 pieces of info are entered.
The long blue button underneath the entry boxes will send the price to the calculator on the other tab as shown below:

As before, any suggestions for improvements or additions are welcome :wink:
* I used the rounded values in the calcs as this is what BH show on their site. e.g. 19mm rather than 19.05. If this is a problem, then let me know and I will change it.
