    Hi Chandra,

    I ran your code as the program below and got

$10,200.00

with both 1.4.2 and 1.5 beta 1.  Same results with the interactive
JIBCurrencyGUI program from my Java Internationalization Basics tutorial at
devWorks.  If that's really all of your code, about the only thing I can
think of is that maybe you're running an earlier version that used AUD
instead.

===============
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;

public class xxx
{
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    NumberFormat cc =
      NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(
      new Locale("en", "AU") );
    System.out.println( cc.format( 10200 ) );
  }  // end main
} // end class xxx

===============

                                                         Joe Sam
