Display and enter the euro and other currency symbols

1. On the Insert menu, click Symbol.
2. In the Font box, click a font that supports the symbol you want.
3. In the Subset box, click Currency Symbols.

   If Currency Symbols is not available, then the selected font does not support currency symbols.

4. In the from box, click Unicode (hex).

   The set of characters is limited if you select something other than Unicode (hex) in the from box. For example, if you select a local code page rather than Unicode, you will see a correspondingly reduced set of characters in the Symbol dialog box.

5. Select the currency symbol you want, and then click Insert.
