Thanks Michael :
I can do what you suggested of creating read-only attribute in User
class.
But all over I am using BeanUtils to copy back and forth Users
properties to UserForm properties.
Is there a cleaner way so even after my adding/deleting properties
in my User class, I don't need to make corresponding change in UserForm
class ?
Thanks again for looking into this.

Create a read-only property in the User bean that returns
userId+"("+userNameShort"+")". For example:
public class User ... {
...
public String getUserIdAndName() {
return userId+"("+userNameShort"+")";
}
}
<html:select property="userIdNew">
<option value="-1">Choose User...</option>
<html:options collection="users"
property="userId"
labelProperty="userIdAndName" />
</html:select>
Michael.
