After looking through the tutorials and online examples, I have come to the forum to ask for help with this problem. I am trying to get a numeric column formatted as currency and totaled. I am getting the following error when I try to do this: MessageFormatColumnDecorator.decorate(66) | Caught an illegal argument exception while trying to format an object with pattern {0,number,currency}, returning the unformatted value. Object class is {0,number,currency} The table in the JSP starts off as: <display:table name="orderList" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" requestURI="" id="orderList" pagesize="500" class="list" export="true" sort="list" decorator="org.displaytag.decorator.TotalTableDecorator" > The offending column is defined as: <display:column media="csv excel pdf html" property="totalPriceAmount" escapeXml="true" sortable="false" title="Subtotal" headerClass="r" class="r" format="{0,number,currency}" total="true" /> Now, here's the somwehat-weird part: The error is thrown and the HTML displayed has no formatting: 1018.6000, but the total that comes out is different: 1018.6 I would have expected the formatting to be the same on both. Now here's the really weird part: The format of the column in the excel spreadsheet looks just fine. It's $1,018.60. The really really weird part is that the spreadsheet has no total at all, where the HTML at least has one, but it's unformatted. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
