Use an action to set the form-bean and then save it to the necessary scope under the name published in the action mapping corresponding to the form being displayed.
Setting data to the bean via the action decouples the form and allows you to reuse the business logic that retreives the data from the persistent store.

But the values eventually come from the database. So inside the form you have to have access to one of the scopes where you could store the retrieved values. Is this how this is done ? Accessing values like this just to set the selected value seems to be a roundabout method. I am using collections in the tags.
