Reg,
Can you clarify a bit? I've 3 questions....
1) How many fields are there on the form you submit for processing to this
page?
2) Does setAccount do anything beyond assigning argument account to private
member
account?
3) How and when do you display the value of account? Immediately after you
do the
setProperty?

> 1) Use an input file in my HTML/JSP source... eg: <..... input
> type="text" name="account" size="4" .... >
> 2) Have the user fill in the required fields and have the value they

> have the value of the input field (ie: name) set a corresponding value
> in a bean to be used to perform some processing.

> Example:
> <jsp:useBean id="searchcriteria" scope="session" class="SearchBean" >
> <jsp:setProperty name="searchcriteria" property="account"
> </jsp:useBean>

> I also have a class called SearchBean (for lack of a better name)... it
> has a private member called account. Two additional methods have been
> supplied setAccount(String account) and getAccount(). From what I have

> I have tried the above but all I can seen to set is null.....
