Does anyone know what the ASCII code is for the Euro symbol (on Solaris 7/Sun 450e)?.

There is no ASCII code for the euro symbol. ASCII is distinctly American. There are codes for the euro in a number of standard code sets. For example, see

http://czyborra.com/charsets/iso8859.html

and

The euro is 0xA4 in ISO-8859-15 and ISO-8859-16. It is 0x80 in Windows-1252 (CP1252), WinBaltic (CP1257), and many others. It is 0x88 in WinCyrillic (CP1251).

Thank you for clearing that up, Richard. Do you know what steps would have to be taken in order to actually print the Euro monetary symbol from a Sun/Solaris machine? Is it purely application driven, or does a specific ISO font have to be chosen? I hope that I'm making sense with this? Thanks again for at least pointing out those sites to check out..

The steps to take depend on what you want to do, but this Solaris 8 document should help: http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/806-5585I don't recall whether Solaris 7 had euro support.Richard
