Found the answer - NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.US).format($V{cntMeasure})

I need to use an expression for my format. How do I format somthing as currency without using the pattern tool?

I am having the same problem and cannot figure this out. Anybody know how to do this?

Ok - here's the situation - I am running iReport via VMWare on an Ubuntu machine. When I moved the source files to my Ubuntu directory I started getting the message below. I already tried opening them and converting them to Window format and that does not seem to correct the issue. Any idea what could be causing this?

Is there an IRC channel for JasperSoft or iReport or any of the things discussed in this forum?
