When I looked into extended ASCII and EBCDIC code pages last year, I figured the Euro sign would probably be the next complaint I got, and in pages that included it the best match I found was between 1140 (US EBCDIC with Euro) and 1252 (Windows-1252). All the same printable characters are in both. I din't like going Microsoft-specific, but ISO 8859-1 predates the Euro, and ISO 8859-15 had 7 other special characters defined in EBCDIC swapped out for letters with diacritics and ligatures. ¬R
