Euro Currency Symbol Displayed?

I am trying to show the Euro currency symbol in a calculated number field.



I tried changing the locale to English (United Kingdeom - EURO). That still displays the british pound symbol.



Any ideas?

Can't you just copy it from another application - e.g. Word?

I tried copying the symbol into the "Display Pattern" field and it said the symbol was invalid.



It also doesn't recognize it in a formula.

Maybe I misunderstand what you wrote in your first post - but:

Try to change the locale to Germany or France. Could that work?

That did work. Thanks! I don't know why the UK - Euro doesn't.

That is because the UK has no Euro.

No problem...

There is a UK Euro option in LiveCycle though. Our office does sell in Euros instead of GBP sometimes.



But what is wierd is when I use Germany or france, to show less than one Euro, it is using a comma instead of a decimal point. That is not how it is shown in our business. For example we would do.



5.32 but LiveCycle is showing it as 5,32



frustrating. Even though in the display pattern I have $z,zz9.99

If you chose "zzz,zz9.99$" in the display pattern LCD should show something like "1.234,50". There should be another option in the display pattern - try and error I would say...

Just to close the loop on this. I used "Ireland". It shows the Euro with a decimal point as needed. Thanks.
