Hi,
Just add my obversation. An editable combobox (actually
its model) does not save the user input to its internal list
until the user hits "return". If the user entered something in
the input field, but did not press "return", getSelectedItem()
will return null.
Using (JComboBox).getEditor().getItem() is more reliable, if
you want to capture the user's input without his/her extra key
stroke.
