>This may or may not work!!! Find out what ascii value the cent symbol is, assign this to a variable and print this as cCent+nValue. Prior assignment of cCent=CHR(xx) where xx equals ascii value. You may have tried this already. Something to consider is the possibility of printer table variations where someday a problem will arise that a different printer being used does not have the cent in the same place!

Nigel, you could also pick a font that has that symbol (such as FoxFont) and make sure all your users have the font available.
