Syntax LSEuroCurrencyFormat( currency-number [, type ])
currency-number
The currency value.
type
Currency type. Valid arguments are:
•
none — (For example, 10.00)
•
local — (Default. For example, 10.00 €)
•
international — (For example, EUR10.00)
Usage The LSEuroCurrencyFormat function can display the Euro symbol (€) only on Euro-
enabled computers, such as Windows NT 4.0 SP4, that have Euro-enabled fonts
installed.
This function is similar to LSCurrencyFormat except that LSEuroCurrencyFormat
displays the Euro currency symbol (€) or the international Euro sign (EUR) if you
specify the type as local or international, respectively, and the Euro is the accepted
currency of the locale.
