    <p>It sounds like you have a handle on the best practices for formatting data. If I were you I would worry less about what is technically the standard but focus more on what it is your users are accustomed to.</p> <p>If you are operating in markets where users are fairly savvy about different currencies it is a very different thing than having more monocultural users. Depending on the case, you will need to design your interface in a different way.</p> <p>Moreover, if your requirement is to display <strong>any</strong> currency to <strong>any</strong> locale, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_4217" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ISO4217</a> standard is your best bet. It is what is shown at currency exchange shops across the world, on currency exchanges, invoices, etc. Otherwise, displaying currency symbols could be rather confusing to some users and the symbol by itself does not indicate what currency the amount actually is.</p> <p>I would also reference the following SO questions. Not all of them directly relate to your problem, but they have very good meta discussions about the issues involved in supporting multiple currencies.</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/522855/how-do-i-round-up-currency-values-in-java">How do I round up currency values in Java</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/285680/representing-monetary-values-in-java">Representing Monetary Values in Java</a></li> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/611732/what-to-do-with-java-bigdecimal-performance">What to do with Java BigDecimal performance?</a></li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
