JCOMBOBOX - how to get the options?

[w_koppers]

Hey, I`m pretty new with java, and i want to use comboboxes... that goes well, but i want to "read" the option the user selected.

Say we have 6 options
- one
- two
- three
- four
- five
- six

And the user has selected the 3d one: three, how can i get that "three" in a string?

String UsersChoice = "";
Userschoice = getItem("dont know what must stand here...?");

something like this???
This must be easy, but if you can help me.... thanx!

Well...it indeed is easy...

You are on the right track. What you need to do is the following

String UsersChoice = "";
Userschoice = ChoiceName.getItem( i );

Replace ChoiseName with the name of your box

i is de index number of the box. You have six options so the index will go from 0 to 5. (just like in an array).

I hope this is explains all.
