Hello,

I just started to use the bulk lister, for the first time.

Because I live in the US, I use an American keyboard. In order to write the euro symbol I have to use the shortcut "alt+0128" to make "€" appear. I use this, for example, to indicate catalogue values.

It works normally if I am making a listing ON the Delcampe web site.

But when I write it in the bulk lister and send the auctions to Delcampe, they show up on the web site with a "?" every place there was before a "€."

This is rather annoying-- perhaps I send a listing that is supposed to say:

"Greenland 1938, 50 øre blue, used, CV 13,50 €"

and instead it says:

"Greenland 1938, 50øre blue, used, CV 13,50 ?"

It doesn't really make sense, because other "special" characters (like £, ø, Ø, etc.) show up correctly. It is ONLY the € symbol that has this problem.

Does anyone have any ideas or solutions to this? Changing every auction by hand after the upload seems like a lot of work.

Thanks in advance, and best regards,
Peter

Had a similar problem with an ebay lister. Got around it by copying from a listed item the 'letter' and then pasting it. kept a file on the desktop so could use it when I wanted. Maybe this is one for microsoft.
cheers
