Currency sign problem

Hi,

I have a problem with an ASP page pulling data from a SQL2000 server.
Expected behaviour is that when prices are displayed they are displayed in
pounds as this is the default locale of the server. However they are
displayed in dollars.

I've checked the default locale and the user locale of the (windows 2000)
server and these are both British english. The language for the SQL user is
also British english.

Are there any other setting that could affect this?

Thanks,

Tim
