I have a Dell KB212-B USB keyboard, and it has both the Indian Rupee symbol and the Euro symbol in the keyboard. But I don't know how to use it. What keys should I press to insert the symbols? I am using Windows XP.

  • Check this page out: `http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/20b9/index.htm`. I'm on linux so can't really try. It's the ALT+[numbers] code that you use to type this kind of characters. Try using this `ALT + 8377` type numbers in sequence while holding Alt – Ashtray Aug 26 '13 at 08:04

    You can also try searching for a correct keyboard layout (Indian layout or something) – Ashtray Aug 26 '13 at 08:11

Normally in all dell keyboards the right side alt button will allow you to trigger the rupee symbol and for euro the same right alt+euro key will work.

i tried this from sathya's answer over here,it works fine on kb212-B keyboard

There is another way. Hold the Alt key and type:

  • 0128 for the Euro symbol or
  • 8377 for the Indian Rupee symbol

On the Internet there are multiple Windows Alt keycode tables. One is for example here: http://www.marathon-studios.com/unicode/categories/Sc/Currency_Symbol

  • Note that this answers a different question, not the one that was actually asked, which was how to use the keys on that keyboard _that have the Euro and Rupee symbols printed on them_ to type the Euro and Rupee symbols. – JdeBP Feb 01 '14 at 10:23
