P.S. An important fact I forgot to mention: my VO is persisted to a
database using Hibernate. Hibernate wraps this
object with its own type. Is it possible that the type conversion
(String -> int) is not working properly because
Hibernate's wrapper gets in the way? I did a simple test of copying a
String -> int using BeanUtil.copyProperties(),
and it worked fine, converting "1" to 1 and "a" to 0. If the problem is
Hibernate, what can be done about it? I don't
think I have control over this wrapper, do I?
Thanks again, guys. I'm stuck and you're tremendously helping me.

Dear Laurie & Christopher:
Great! Thanks. I'm using Strings now in my form. But as I wrote to Ed,
suppose I validated the form and would like to copy all properties to
a VO (value object) / DTO with one call (e.g. copyProperties()). How
do I get it to automatically convert my form String property into a
VO's corresponding property which is an int or an Integer?
Thanks again
Oren
