Try UNICODE. It supports any character that you can throw at it. It's
made to support Simplified and Traditional Chinese, so I think it will
support the euro symbol. UNICODE takes about 3 bytes for each character
for physical storage.

We currently use UNICODE for any contingency of the sort and for future
planning of the deployment of our software.
