I have since discovered that the problem is the Code Page. Selecting the 1140 “English U.S.” code page will properly display the Euro symbol (EBCDIC x’9F’).

By defintion all characters below x40 are considered control charaxters, hence all filtered out on 3270's Sorry, even living in Belgium, I don't know what it should be in EBCDIC, it may even depend on the code page one is using, and that's for example different in Belgium and France. 2011/2/23 Frank M. Ramaekers <framaek...@ailife.com> Is there a way to get XEdit to display the euro symbol? (PC: x’80’ Alt-0128 €, EBCDIC: x’20’) It appears to change this character to the double-quote (“), as it does for undisplayable characters. Frank M.
