Method ConvertCurrencyToMinorUnits

ConvertCurrencyToMinorUnits(string, double)

Converts an amount of currency to the minor units required for the objects passed to the Transaction method. This method uses data from ISO 4217. Note that this method expects you to pass in currency in the major units for conversion - if you already have data in the minor units you don't need to call this method. For example - 1.99 USD would be converted to 199, 123 JPY would be returned unchanged.
