A single bad row in IF_Buying_Selling_Exchange_Rates...xlsx, not a parsing issue.

Every currency differs from the Data Library by under 0.2 LKR on this date - the file records 4 decimal places (e.g. USD/BUY 155.5247) where the Library's copy has 2 (155.43); a precision/rounding difference between two CBSL publications of the same TT rate, not an error.
