Suz, when I type <Option> <Shift> 2  on my Mac I do not see anything like a
Euro symbol (and it's been all over the news lately, I know what it is
supposed to look like :)  Here it is again.

�

To me it looks like a circle with a small diagonal line outside the circle
pointing outwards at what would be the four "corners" of the circle if it
was a square (hope that makes sense :)  So you seem to be seeing something
different than what I am seeing. How odd.

I say just type "Euro".
