Hi Wendy,
Thanks so very much for your reply. It was in fact a big help, and in the
end, helped me to find the solution.
It turned out that the problem was actually with how I was populating the
form jurisdiction field.
Apparently the s.getJurisdictionF() method was returning an array which had
some null entries, and the null entries in the array caused everything to
choke.
I then re-tested with setJurisdiction(String j[]) versus
setJurisdiction(String [ ]j) and everthing worked just fine either way.
None the less, I'll keep the setJurisdiction(String [] j) to make sure I
don't run into other problems.
The UpdateAction Class
public ActionForward perform(
TestPageForm testPageForm = (TestPageForm) form;
Service s = (Service) ServiceUtility.getServiceByPk(id);
testPageForm.setJurisdiction(s.getJurisdictionF());
}
Thanks again
Eva

I vote for the old type of get and set methods do not match problem:
public String[] getJurisdiction() { return this.jurisdiction; }
public void setJurisdiction(String j[]) { this.jurisdiction = j; }
I would try using setJurisdiction( String[] j) instead.
The Introspection/Reflection process is *very* picky when it comes to
recognizing JavaBeans properties. Usually it's someone mixing String and
int properties, but I can see how it would be confused by String j[] and
String[] as well.
