Wow, Narda, there sure are a lot of symbols available there, including the new euro symbol, € . Thanks for the tip. As you can (hopefully) see, I inserted the euro symbol (above) into a Word document and then copied and pasted it into this E-mail. But did it maintain its appearance through the Roots e-mail system? We shall see. Similarly, here is the carat symbol, as copied from a Word document insert, ^ . Let's see how they transfer.

Looks like it worked! At least on my computer. Just insert the troublesome symbol into a Word document. Then cut and paste it into an E-mail. Norm B. ----- Original Message ----- From: Norm B.
