Take a look at the struts-example webapp. I do this same thing in my Struts app-- load from the database into a bean, then use BeanUtils.copyProperties(...) to move the values over to the form, then display it. I use Dynamic forms, so the form properties are defined in struts-config.xml, which gets me out of writing the get/set methods for the form bean.
