Displaying the Euro Sign in a Textbox

Why Trust Us

Don’t you just hate it that the Euro monetary symbol is not present on all computers?

With this simple trick you can add the Euro sign to a textbox.

Put a Textbox on your form. In its Text Property use the shortcut Alt 0128. Then add this code to make use of it properly:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)        {            textBox1.Text += Convert.ToDecimal(txtEuros.Text);            //OR If your regional settings are set up correctly            textBox1.Text = Convert.ToDecimal(txtEuros.Text).ToString("C");         }
