Web development can be a daunting task, even for specialists. There is a lot of information to absorb and a lot of technologies to learn in order to manage a superior website. When trying to learn the ropes, developers need a reliable source to introduce new ideas that can be easily implemented. When working on large projects, even web veterans may run into a technology or an aspect of a technology that they are unfamiliar with.
In your first example, you put "$euro", looks like it should be: "&euro".
You have spaces in between your second example, it should be: <b>€</b>

Sorry about the '$' sign instead of the '&'. I already changed it and it did not work. As for the second issue as to why I put spaces in this code "€", it is because THIS forum converts it to euro sign so I put spaces. However, in my actual code, i did not put spaces there and it still did not work in my case. I even put this <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />. I'm stuck in this problem.

Put in response.write debug probes to see what currencystring ends up looking like, or view the page source your asp code creates over in the browser

Dude. HTML pages and PDF files are not the same thing.

Yes, I just realized that awhile ago. But surely there is a way how to display it in a pdf file. I just don't know how. And I'd gladly appreciate a help from experts.

My POINT, is that you are in a CLASSIC ASP forum, and said nothing about pdf files in your original post. Being precise in your questions really help. I have no idea how to do it in a pdf file.
