Hello Patrick,

> I am running 2007 RTM on XP Pro SP2 English, but with a German keyboard.
I've installed Office 2007 RTM (German) and since then when pressing
AltGR + E or Ctrl + Alt + E in an editor (Word, Notepad, Outlook Email
editor) or everywhere else where you can type text, instead of inserting
the Euro character at the cursor position Excel 2007 is started.
If you whish I can send you a short video doing exactly that tomorrow,
now I've no time.

>> Hello.

>> I've a German Windows XP Pro SP2 and of course a keyboard with German

>> other European keyboard layouts too) there is the EURO-Symbol € (\u20AC)

>> Since I've installed Office 2007 this shortcut does not work anymore.

>> Do you have any solutions or ideas for this issue?
