This could be a locale problem rather than a Diablo jvm one. What happens if you specify the local when invoking getCurrencyInstance, e.g. NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.US); See http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/using-localization.html for setting you locale. cheers Calvin.
