Do you really? You're the one who provided the codes and names for the drop-down, so you must know what they are... when the form is submitted, simply use the 'code' to look up the 'name' from the same place. I typically keep Maps in Application or Session scope, and use them to populate select lists across the app (or for a particular user.) -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This e-mail (and any attachments) may contain privileged and/or confidential information.
