Euro symbol appearing as "#"

Hello,
When I view the output preview of the Purchase Order (SmartForms) layout ... the symbol for the Euro currency is not displayed correctly and appears rather as the character "#".
How can I fix this??
Thanks,
Tim

I obtain the symbol euro in my sapscript form,
I only add the next code in the editor of sapscript:
<156>
The table TCP01 contains all code that SAP provide,
the field CPCHARNO is the corresponding for 156.
The "problem" is that you see the symbol only when you print in your printer (no preview).
believe me!
Cordial greetings.

Euro symbol appearing as ? on oracle forms

i am using application server 10gR2 forms and report services standalone which is connected to oracle db 10gR2 , all on one box running solaris 5.10
the db characterset is WE8ISO8859P15 which i think support EURO symbol. So when i store euro symbol in a varchar2 column, I am very well able to retrieve the euro symbol in pl/sql developer. However the issue is with forms as the forms screen display the euro symbol as question mark (?)
I have set NLS_CURRENCY to alt+0128 and NLS_LANG to AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P15 in .env file.
Any suggestions on how to go about displaying EURO symbol on forms screen would be appreciated.

Smart Forms Euro € symbol?

Hello Experts!
I want to add € in my Smart Forms Text.
There is an OSS hint 616683 to this question but all releases mentioned are lower than our used release and the solution with entering the Number 156 for € doesn't work.
Please help
Best Regards
Annette

Hi Annette,
Using SAP Script:
To print Euro Symbol in SAP Script, do the following:
Put the sequence <156> at the desired location in the text editor of the corresponding page window as shown below:
During the print preview, the output would be as shown below:
Using Smart Forms:
For printing Euro symbol in Smart Form, do the following:
In the Microsoft Word document, click on Insert -> Symbols
Select the Euro symbol from the list. The symbol would appear on the document. Copy the symbol and paste in the text editor of the Smart form as shown below:
Save and activate the Smart Form and do the test run. The print preview would be as shown below:
Printing of Euro symbol might not be possible on all Printers. By default, SAP R/3 supports the euro symbol only when using the SAPWIN device type and printing over SAPLPD (mainly used for individual document printing).
To print this on Kyocera printers, do the following:
“When using PRESCRIBE device types (like kyofs150, kyofs170, zkm10pre) the euro sign will not be printed very beautiful. To print the real Euro sign instead of the combined ( and = character on top of each other) please set the character 156 of the SAP code page 1114 to 80 hex. In this case the Euro sign will be printed correctly. Alternatively please copy the code page 1114 to e.g. 9114 and make the modification there. Then you just have to switch the used code page of your device type (kyofs150, 170 or zkm10pre) to 9114 as well.”
Also check the SAP Note 0129581 for more information on this.

Euro Symbol with Windows 7 Bootcamp

I'm using a Macbook with Windows 7 via Bootcamp and I'm having a hard time finding the Euro Symbol. I've tried every combo of numbers+alt+shift. Is there a shortcut for this symbol in bootcamp? I do not want to keep copying and pasting it from the internet into my doccuments.

In my case, using Mac Aluminum keyboard, looking at this:
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/eurosymbolfaq.mspx
Pressing Right Alt key and key 0 1 2 8 in numeric keypad
causes € to appear when you stop pressing on Alt Key.

Euro symbol - numberConverter

Hi, i'm tryng to format a number with the euro symbol as prefix.
How must be set the pattern property in order to show the euro symbol?
I try first with dollar symbol and works (pattern=$###,###.##) but if i try with the unicode (pattern=\u20AC###,###.##) like the jsf tutorial (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/i18n/format/decimalFormat.html) the symbol doesn't appear.
Thanks
Gianni

Thanks Giri your solution works on but only if i don't set locale for my app.
When i set or change the locale of my app with this code:
javax.faces.context.FacesContext fctx = javax.faces.context.FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
java.util.Locale locn =new java.util.Locale("it_IT");
fctx.getViewRoot().setLocale(locn);
numberConverter2.setLocale(locn);
numberConverter2.setPattern("� ###,##0.00");then euro symbol is replaced by the "�" .
The wrong symbol remain also if i set "en_US" as locale.
Note that the page Language is set to "it-IT" .

Euro Symbol and Oracle

How can I display Euro Symbol in Oracle - if shows now as a opposite ?. I read that I ned to change the character set to WE8MSWIN1252. How can I figure out what set we are currently using?
Thanks,
MJ

The "right answer" here is that the third party application does not support the Euro character (or any other character not in ASCII 1-127).
My hunch is that the third party vendor has built an application that relies on unsupported Oracle behavior-- if your client NLS_LANG and database character set are identical, Oracle does not do character set translation when you send an retrieve data. This can allow a single application to appear to "get around" the limitations of the database character set. Basically, if every application that stores and retrieves data agrees to lie to Oracle in exactly the same way (i.e. I have Chinese data encoded in Big5, but I tell Oracle it is US7ASCII when I store and retrieve it, then treat it as Big5 after I've retrieved it) an application can appear to store Chinese data in an ASCII database. If any application that does not know how to "properly" lie to Oracle tries to query the data, however, the non-ASCII data will not be retrieved correctly. Since Oracle utilities (import, export, database links) and various layers like JDBC don't know how to "properly" lie to Oracle, this is generally not a long term solution.

Put euro symbol in ISO-8859-1 database

is it possible to use jdbc to store a euro symbol in oracle with character set ISO-8859-1 then retrieve the information with jdbc and write it to a ISO-8859-15 textfile and display the euro symbol properly. i'm trying to do this and it doesn't work. as output i use a OutputStreamWriter object in Java using ISO-8859-15 to create an XML file and then i open it in Internet Explorer. it doen't recognize the euro symbols. strange thing is that when i view the source in notepad it does display the euro symbols properly. just using the OutputStreamWriter to write euro symbols also works well.
i'm trying to find out what is causing this problem but i'm not quite sure. i never before had problems with character sets so it's all a bit new to me.
thank you in advance.

The ISO-8859-1 character set does not contain the Euro character, so the database cannot hold it properly. If you want the Euro character to appear in your database, you would have to change the database character set to something that can store the euro character (or make use of your national character set, if that will store the euro character).

Hi colin the card,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you purchased your device in a different country than the one you reside in and want to change the currency symbol typed from the keyboard. The article linked below will provide details about changing your MacBook Airs region and currency format.

Sorry, possibly you need a new hard drive or try reformating. First
you can try something like http://www.alsoft.com/diskwarrior/ it has been known to repair disk that DiskUtility could not. YMMV and they don't give it away.
If Disk Warrior can not repair then you need to Reformate the drive. Make sure you have a back-up in place no matter what.

Not getting Euro Symbol in PDF Report using XML Publisher

Hi,
We have developed an Oracle Report from Report Builder 6i and also a Template in RTF Format.
We are using XML Publisher to display our XML Output in PDF Format to Users..
There is a Field called Comments on Customer Transaction Form, where user can enter any characters and that we are querying in Report and displaying on the PDF Output.
Currently, the user entered a Euro Character on the comments section and that was not visible to user on PDF Report and replaced by a Question Mark as below:
"3% price reduction ?89.91, 20% marine"
When i am Querying to the Database, i am able to see the Euro Symbol, but when i checked the XML generated on the Unix Box for the Report. I found as below:
"3% price reduction \342\202\25489.91, 20% marine"
So, the Euro Symbol on the database is replaced by " \342\202\254" in the XML Output and ? in the PDF Outbut.
Please help ASAP.

I'm using a macbook pro, running snow leopard. Yesterday I got around to emptying my trash for the first time in quite awhile and was surprised by how much there seemed to be in there. Immediately after a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders. If I click on these question marks I get a message saying ' the item can't be found'.

mpagan47 wrote: a question mark symbol appeared on all my hard disk folders.
Not sure where these hard disk folders are located that you are referring to? Finder, Finder tool bar, Finder side bar, Desktop, Dock?
More then likely they are an alias that not longer point to the orginals, thus the question mark.
I would reboot. Delete icons if an alias and just recreate by dragging from the source. Try right click (control) click to remove.

How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name, and no trash can icon appears below most of the pictures the computer just put on my new iPhone 4.

How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone 4? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name when I press "Edit," and no trash can icon for me to click appears below most of the individual photos in the albums the computer just loaded on my new iPhone 4. When I synced the new phone the computer added these photo albums without permission from me. They are now taking up about 3 GB of memory on my phone. I would like very much to get rid of these photos from the phone. How do I do this?

To delete photos from your device
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.

Euro symbol and Internet Explorer

Hi,
I'm trying to display in a HTML page a Euro value using an Italian Locale. The output is always a question mark followed by the correct Euro value (i.e. ? 513,45).
My client browser is IExplorer 5.5 sp2. JSP server is TOMCAT latest release. Web services are under IIS (NT 4.0)
I'm using the following code in a JSP page.
<%
java.util.Locale ELocale=new Locale("it", "IT", "EURO");
double Euro=1936.27;
out.println(NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(ELocale).format(24900/Euro));
%>
Somebody can help me ?

HI Mario,
definately your encoding. Just about every European encoding nowadays has two versions - the old one, and the new updated one that carries one extra character - the Euro symbol.
Unfortunately, I can't tell you off the top of my head what the name of the right encoding to use would be, but the JDK documentation points to a list of all defined encodings, which should contain the one you're after.
Hope that helps!
