Baz Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Recently I replaced my computer, on the previous keyboard the euro symbol was below the number 4 and all that was required was to hold down CTRL and Alt. On the new keyboard the euro symbol is below the letter E and I have tried everything but cannot produce euro sign. I am sure somebody can put me out of my misery, PLEASE!Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David584 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 BazWhat OS are you using? And more to the point are you using an English keyboard or a French one?Is the € sign on the right hand isde of the letter E key? If so is there an ALT GR key to the right of your space bar? If so, then try the ALT GR key and the E key together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baz Posted December 8, 2004 Author Share Posted December 8, 2004 David and M, thanks for the speedy response, ALT Gr and the number 4 does the trick, would never have guessed. Still do not understand why the € sign is to the right of the E and I am using an UK keyboard and it does not work. At least I can now type €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David584 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Perhaps it was a production fault with the keyboard. However whether it was or not is neither here nor there, at least you now know how to get the € sign!!Happy €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David584 Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 There is an alternative:Hold down the ALT key and type in using the NUMERIC keypad 0128 and then release the ALT key.On my keyboard it produces the € sign. The other alternative I have discovered but does not work with my set up is hold down the ALT key and type in, again using the NUMERIC keypad 0136. On my set up it produces ˆbut it may work on yours.

Suninfrance Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 Have learned something new today. Thank you. €€€€€€Having wiped the brick dust and grime off my keyboard, discovered the Alt Gr key. No € symbol on my keyboard at all, but Alt Gr 4 works - no stopping me now. €€€€€€€€€€€ Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
