Wow! Great!
I did exactly as you suggested, and now it works.
Alt+5 now produces the € sign and Alt+Space the nobreakspace char (ascii 160).
Thank you very much for your help. I've tried all I could think of,
but I couldn't have figured this out myself.

After the € sign and the nbsp; char worked, I checked "Menu is
compose" as I my previous setting was, and that also works again like

Greetings and thanks again, Manon.
