Problems importing a file that contains the EURO symbol.

I have a .txt tab delimited file that contains records with Euro symbols - see below:

When i try to import it into Alteryx, Alteryx translates the Euro sign "€" into a Box - which i gather some type of error. See below:

Any thoughts how i can import the Euro sign in?

Hi @jdelaguila, maybe try modifying the Code Page option in the Input tool config window to ANSI - Central European. It seems to pull in the euro sign on my local Designer instance

if for any reason the easy solution by @AbhilashR  doesn't work - double check that you are saving your .txt file in ansi as opposed to say UTF-8.

The "ANSI - Central European" worked! Thanks.
