I am familiar with the slides having used them in Amsterdam last year - a
suggestion, rather than have your purchasing department go through thoes of
paying with all the foreign exchange, etc -  why not try and order them
yourself on a credit card (if company will take it) and have purchasing
approve/reimburse you for everything.  That way the EURO conversion is done
at time of sale on the card.  I certainly had no problems using ATM or
Credit Cards in Europe. 

I know of no other slides with these special coatings in the USA, bummer!
