Forgot to mention that if you have a couple of places where you have the
same problem, it might be good idea to subclass CSpComboBox and add a
method
select(java.lang.String) which will do what the code below does.

Subject: Re: [ND] FW: [ND] Trying to use setValue for a Combobox with
the concatena tion of d atafields
I got curious about what was going on and did some research. I am pretty
convinced that there is a bug (may be two) in ND.
My conclusions:
1. If you have selected Emp Name and Emp id as the value for the combo,
the value is constructed as "John, 1234". While
combo.getSelected().getValue() correctly gives "John, 1234",
combo.getValue() returns "John,1234" (takes out the space after ,)
2. combo.select(CSpValue) fails even after the above glitch is taken
care of. I guess the culprit is none but the implementation of
select(CSpValue).
I could get going with the following piece of code.
======================================================================
Enumeration enum = combo.getChildren().elements();
int count = 0;
while (enum.hasMoreElements()) {
CSpSelectable sel = (CSpSelectable)
enum.nextElement();
if
(sel.getValue().toString().equals(myDesiredString))
break;
else {
CSpHtml.sendMessage("Val :
|"+sel.getValue()+"|<BR>");
count++;
}
}
combo.select(count);
======================================================================
Well, I was driven by curiosity. Otherwise I would have used a computed
column in the DataObject where Oracle would have neatly concatenated the
fields and given one field to ND.

Oh, OK, now I get it.
Don't know the answer, but here's a way to find out:
theBox.doAutoFill();
theBox.selectAll();
Vector v = theBox.getSelectedList();
for(Enumeration e=v.elements(); e.hasMoreElements();)
{
CSpListItem currSelected=(CSpListItem) e.nextElement();
String currSelectedLabel=currSelected.getLabel ();
CSpValue currSelectedValue=currSelected.getValue ();
CSpLog.send(this, CSpLog.ERROR, "label ="+currSelectedLabel + ", value="
+
currSelectedValue);
}//for(Enumeration e=v.elements(); e.hasMoreElements();)
