Mike Thanks - not sure if the problem is with the fact that the code is in the constructor: 1) the In Action book seems to setup dropdowns ect in the constructor - where else would I define the drop down? 2) the debugger and syout both show that selectedAccount has the correct value prior to constructing the dropdown.
Re IChoseRenderer, the dropdown is displaying the correct values and also updating selectedAccount correctly. So what does IChoseRenderer apart from saving the effort to extract the raw account numbers - are you brining in IChoseRenderer as good advice or are you saying that the fact I am not using it is part of the issue? I need to understand Models better, but I am wondering - do I have to write another class to wrap Account with a Model implementation just to do this simple thing? Also, if the selectedAccount is correctly set before calling the constructor, will this still help?
