Just a note: Strange, not all codes of ISO 4217 are listed in enumeration, e.g. I do not see Belarusian Ruble (BYR). It should be in the list at least, but the service may return "cannot convert". Ah, americans...

There might be better services out there, that was the first one that came up in my search.

You'll either hardcode the exchange rate in your application or database, or you'll be fetching that in real time (or asynchronously & cache every x minutes) from a third party site, for example http://www.google.com/search?q=1+usd+in+inr

In order to do this you would need to fetch the current exchange rate from a web service. The easiest way, if you just need to fetch a page, is something like this:
InputStream is = new URL("http://someexchangesite.com...").openStream();
Then read and parse the InputStream to find the exchange rate, and then use it with some simple multiplication!
