Displaying the Euro Symbol
Hello TB! Users, I get mail from a daily news email that includes currency symbols. Whilst the GBP and USD signs appear as they should, the Euro symbol always appears as a code, as below: Eircom valued at up to #8364;1.3bn after pricing Eircom, Ireland's largest telecommunications operator, set a price range of #8364;1.48 to #8364;1.75 per share for its IPO, valuing the company at up to #8364;1.26bn. Is this a problem with the email message itself, the Character Set I am viewing it in, or the font? (Of course, if the problem is with my settings, then you may see Euro symbols above, and not the code. The code is #8364; - I have added a space after the to stop it being interpreted.)
