Thanks Mark. But it doesn't seem to work. When u say 2 international 
currency symobls you mean something like setCurrency("$$"); ?

    UErrorCode success = U_ZERO_ERROR;
    NumberFormat* currfmt = 
NumberFormat::createCurrencyInstance(loc,success);
     char* setcurr = "$$";
     UChar u_currsym[6];
     u_charsToUChars(setcurr,u_currsym,6);
     currfmt->setCurrency(u_currsym,success);
     currfmt->format(val,str);

I get this:  $$4.13
