How to do formatting of messageStyleText in a table for each row

Question

Hello one and all,
We have a requirement that the values displayed in figures must have a formatting same as we do in SQL
for example : select TO_CHAR(4555.95 , '999,999,999.99') from dual
OUTPUT will be 4,555.95
Now i want to do the formatting for the messageStyleText which i have created as follows:
Header
Table
messageStyleText
The code that i am writing is as follows :
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
//Call the AM by using create object, this object created only for FirstPG_AMImpl use
FirstPG_AMImpl am =(FirstPG_AMImpl)pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
//Calling view object vo method when Go button is clicked.
if (pageContext.getParameter("go")!=null)
Object [] returnVa = (Object[]) am.payslipsummary(pageContext);
OAMessageStyledTextBean earbean =(OAMessageStyledTextBean) webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("inputValue");
earbean.setValue(pageContext, returnVa[0]);
when the query executes it displays 3 Rows in the table.
Now, the formatting happens only for the first row displayed in my table. how to allow formatting to happen for all the rows???
NOTE: the formatting code is in my AMImpl
public Object[] payslipsummary(OAPageContext pageContext)
Object [] strValue = new Object[10];
NumberFormat numberFormat = NumberFormat.getInstance();
numberFormat.setMinimumFractionDigits(2);
numberFormat.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
numberFormat.setMinimumIntegerDigits(3);
numberFormat.setMaximumIntegerDigits(20);
return strValue;
pls help!

Hi,
To for the specific column value of all rows of table, please loop through the underlying VO of that table
OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject)am.findViewObject("View Object");
if (vo != null) {
Row TotalLinesVOrows[] = vo.getAllRowsInRange();
RowSetIterator rowsetitr[] = vo.getRowSetIterators();
if (vo.getRowCount() > 0) {
rowsetitr[0].setRangeStart(0);
rowsetitr[0].setRangeSize((int)vo.getRowCount());
for (int count = 0; count < vo.getRowCount(); count++) {
row = rowsetitr[0].getRowAtRangeIndex(count);
Object value= row.getAttribute("ViewAttributename");
Double fomattedValue=getFormatCurrency(value)
row.setAttribute("ViewAttributename", fomattedValue);
public String getUSFormatCurrency(double value)
Locale locales = Locale.US ;
DecimalFormat formatter = (DecimalFormat)
NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locales);
String formattedCurrency = formatter.format(value);
return formattedCurrency;
Thanks
