How to display a collection in a list using display tag

ok here is the scenario i have two pojo classes they are as follows 

public class CodeSetting {

    private long codeSettingId;
    private String code;    
    private String codeDescription;
    private CodeType codeType;
    private Collection<Company> company = new ArrayList<Company>();

    }
public class Company
{
      private String comapny Name;  
}

now i want to display the codesetting using the display tag codesetting and company have many to many relationship ok.

so using display tag i can display the attributes of the codesetting by using a list of code setting object.

but the problem comes while displaying the company

as its also a collection it also needs to be iterated for each codesetting object but not possible using display tag tried using the iterator tag of struts2 but still no use

i want my display to be like this

code codetype company

M marriage abc,bca

if anyone came across the scenario and solved the problem do guide me through it would be very helpful .thanks in advance

finally got the answer need to use nested column in display tag only problem is while exporting as we are using nested sub list

<display:table id="parent"  name="codesettingList" cellpadding="7" cellspacing="5" pagesize="5" requestURI="/viewCodeSetting" >

                <display:column property="codeSettingId"  title="Code Setting ID" href="viewCodeSettingSelected" paramId="codeSettingId"/>
                <display:column property="code" title="Code"/>
                <display:column property="codeDescription" title="Code Description"/>
                <display:column property="codeType.codeType" title="Code Type" />


                <c:set var="nestedName" value="codesettingList[${parent_rowNum -1}].company" />

                <display:column title="Company">

                    <display:table  name="${nestedName}" id="child${parent_rowNum}" class="simple sublist">
                        <display:column property="companyName" ></display:column>
                    </display:table>


                </display:column> 

                <display:setProperty name="paging.banner.placement" value="bottom" />

            </display:table>
