    This would be a customization, but you could do a trick to hide the language drop down, and then write code (javascript or setcurrency.aspx.cs code) to also automatically set the language based on the currency selection...

    Thanks jsimacek.. Actually i just finished playing around with this.. and found an other trick (i think).i basically added the language drop down instead of currency, renamed Language to Currency, in the Locale Settings, Description, i renamed the language Description to GBP and AUD .. and it works .. it now looks like the currency dropdown now..
    i did not test any orders yet .. but i think it should work just fine .. what do you think ... would i face any problems..

    There shouldn't be any problem with that. The locale feature is designed to switch locale and currency both so that's standard behavior.
