Does anyone run Struts under WAS 4.0? Is Xerces 3.2.1 works with Struts in WAS 4.0?

Mark, Regardless of how the number is formatted, there will always be a problem when handling currency amounts as floating numbers. Multiplication and division operations will introduce rounding errors. I have found that it is best to store currency amounts as ints and then have code in the beans to format the values for display. This also can ease I18n issues when dealing with currencies that don't contain decimals.
