How do I print the Eurosymbol?

I'm use Vpe3.5 by Active X.

Thanks,

I don't understand your question. The Euro symbol can be printed normally - as any other ANSI character - by simply putting it into a string.

Thorsten,

When I try to print the euro symbol I get Ç. I'm sending Character 0128.

I'm using VPE in combination with Visual Dataflex 11.1

In fact the decimal code for the Euro character is 128. There are two possible reasons for your problem:

1) 0128 is a special notation in your prgramming language and does not represent the decimal value 128.

2) You are using the wrong character set. Try setting VPE.CharSet = ANSI_CHARSET before inserting the text object.
