For this, you can probably just set the "tableData" property of the TableView:

  tableView.setTableData(myList);

Here, you might want to use data binding. You could load the selected row into 
your form:

  form.load(myList.get(tableView.getSelectedIndex()));

The Stock Tracker tutorial includes some example code that demonstrates 
something similar. I'd suggest looking at the Pivot 1.5 version, since it 
represents current best practices (the 1.4 version goes back a way and is a 
little dated at this point):

  
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pivot/trunk/tutorials/src/org/apache/pivot/tutorials/stocktracker/

The tutorial docs haven't been uploaded to the site yet, but if you build Pivot 
from source and run the Ant deploy target, you can read it locally.

Hope this helps,
