Code page 869 (CCSID 869) (CP 869, IBM 869, OEM 869) is a code page used under DOS to write Greek[2] and may also be used to get Greek letters for other uses such as math.[citation needed] It is also called DOS Greek 2.[3] It was designed to include all characters from ISO 8859-7.

Code page 869 was not as popular as code page 737.[citation needed]
