(OP)
I want to create a monetary Unit like $ to assign it to a value, say 100 $/kW for example. How can I do that in MathCad 11 (2001)?
Thank you very much!!

RE: monetary units (e.g. $/kW)
I'm afraid that my problem is still not solved. What I actually need is that MathCad recognizes $ or € as a unit so that I can calculate with it:
example
cost := 100 $/kW
power := 5 kW
result := cost * power
result = 500 $
When I type the unit in the way you explained MathCad says that there are undefined functions (-> $).
RE: monetary units (e.g. $/kW)
$:=1
Now put $ in the unit placeholder when you define your variables and after the result. It has to be type with ctrl-shft-k like before, but if you highlight the original $ and copy it to the clipboard, you can paste it into all of the placeholders.
