Hey chuck,
thank you for reply, thats exactly what i was looking for.
However, in my earlier Q i was asking mike, what if i wanted to populate
data from ArrayList (which i recieved from data access object) into a view
class ( a java bean) so that it can be later used by a view jsp on the
front end.
Hope i made it clear
Regards,
Meka Toka
