I am writing my first swing pgm, so this may sound ridiculous, but here it is --
i have an employee table, employee number and name being the fields. i want to display the names in a jcombobox, but do the maintenance (edit/create/delete) using the employee number. how do i do this? i.e if the user selects the name, how do i know the corresponding number? is there a standard way of doing this? i have read material, but need to know what the gurus say ;-)
thanks to all in advance.
