You can add special symbols to the number format, such as symbols that are not included in the currency or accounting formats.
The CHAR formula displays the symbol. To add a symbol to the new format you create, copy the symbol to the Type box.
Example: Create a format with the € symbol (euro)
(The symbol does not appear in the format list in Excel 97).
The result: €#,##0. Screenshot // Adding Euro format to the number format in Microsoft Excel
