I'm just guessing here, but it sounds to me like you're trying to fire an event with code? I'm sure there is a way to do that, but - again, I'm guessing - it sounds like just setting the combo-box to a new value isn't going to generate an actionEvent or stateChange. I thought those events were actually 'fired' through the operating system, and then handed off to our programs to be handled. If that's the case, then just changing it in code doesn't fire the event. I'll bet there is a way to - using code - simulate an event to be fired, so your code can handle it just as if a user made the change. In fact, I'm pretty sure that can be done. Anyone know how?
