The ALTG +4 works for me, but if you are still having problems then try this:
1 Make sure your "num lock" is on ( there is usually a key for this on the Right side of your keyboard...near the numbers) you can also permanently switch this on in the BIOS but for now, just try and find the Num lock Key, press it, and a small light should appear somewhere on your keyboard...usually near the caps lock light.
2 hold down the ALT key the left hand one will do fine and then using the Right side of the keyboard (called the numerical keyboard) press the zero key followed by 128 and then release the Alt key...if there is any fairness in the world you should see a lovely Euro sign the instant you release the ALT key.
NOTE you must use the numerical keyboard on the right hand side (it will not work using the regular keys!) and you must have the NUM lock on.
Good luck and let us know how you get on
Regards

I dare suggest that a permanent note of this be displayed
on the site for others who will face this problem.
Thank you once again

The right alt key depressed with the number 4 from the far right with Numlock ON gives ♦
The right alt key depressed with the number 5 from the far right with Numlock ON gives ♣
Though either alt key with the 4/$ or 5/% produces nothing for me on this standard supply keyboard from Dell.(I believe it used to be called 101 key, back in the day mine only has 94 ) Belief only gets you so far.
€ <- alt + 0128

Glad the code did the trick for you.
Sometimes I use quite a lot of these codes, there are loads of them, but these are the ones I use most frequently. I can provide a complete list if anyone needs them.
Hope they may be of some use to you and other readers of the topic.
Press Alt and hold it down whilst typing the following codes, remember for UK keyboards and quite a few others, (but not apparently some US keyboards) you will need NUM Lock to be “ON” and you MUST always use the numerical keyboard (to the right) on most desktop machines.
€ 0128
¥ 0165
‰ 0137
— 0151
• 0149
© 0169
™ 0153
® 0174
° 0176
÷ 0247
± 0177
µ 0181
¼ 0188
½ 0189
¾ 0190
When writing in French or other languages that require accented characters like acute, grave umlaut etc., I often fail to use the codes as they slow down too much my already poor typing. So far my readers have shown great understanding and forbearance but if anyone needs them I can provide a good list of the usual ones.

Highlight the information you want in Paws' post.
Right-click anywhere on the highlighted information and select copy
Open notepad, wordpad, microsoft word.... whatever you want for a text program.
Right-click anywhere in the open screen for that program... and select paste
Now you can print... save... whatever you wish.
You can find these codes and more here: http://www.tedmontgo...al/altchrc.html
