hello Adjriou,

can't help you directly, but I'd suggest looking at these great articles:

The Art and Science of Curve Building
http://www.fincad.com/news/jun04/The%20Art%20of%20Curve%20Building.pdf

David Cox: Yield Curves and how to build them
http://tinyurl.com/7y5vb

Excel/VBA of McCulloch's model

Hope this helps,
ashish
