XFOR: PROFS and SNADS Connector Does Not Support Euro Symbol (196615)
The information in this article applies to:

This article was previously published under Q196615 SYMPTOMS
The PROFS or OV/VM connector does not support the Euro character when
translating messages between Exchange Server and the host. For the Windows
code page, 1252, the Euro maps to 'x80' (Alt-0128).
CAUSE
The PROFS and SNADS connector is not equipped to handle the translation of
the Euro symbol between the new host code page 1182 to the Windows code
page 1252 (available in Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 and Windows 98)
RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Exchange Server 5.5. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the

STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.5. MORE INFORMATION
The PROFS and SNADS connector now correctly translates the Euro dollar
symbol when transferring messages between Exchange Server and the host.
Customers will need to update their IBM host software to the latest version
in order to support this new code page.
The new 1148 code page is simply the old 500 code page with a single
character addition for the Euro symbol.
