How do I convert data that is given from result set string. I am trying to show the drop down box gui as a text but give it a value of 1 and 2
what I want it to show as for drop down choice is right: https://i.imgur.com/gDKAkDX.png
but I need the actual values to be 1 and 2 correspondingly
Then I need to put those values back into a database f key that only allows int…
final ObservableList options = FXCollections.observableArrayList(); public void fillComboBox() { Connection c; try { Connection conn = null; Statement stmt = null; String queryx = "Select CusType_ID, CusTypeName from CustomerType"; ResultSet jrs = c.createStatement().executeQuery(queryx); while (jrs.next()) { String custyID = jrs.getString("CusType_ID"); String custyN = jrs.getString("CusTypeName"); options.add(new MyObject(custyID,custyN)); typeBox.setItems(options); } } catch (SQLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } String sql = "INSERT INTO Customer [CustomerType_ID]) VALUES" typeBox.getValue() +"')";

Answer
First create a class for storing the CusType_ID and CusTypeName in dropdown(combobox)
public class MyObject { private String key; private String value; public MyObject(String key, String value) { this.key = key; this.text = value; } public String getKey(){ return key ; } @Override public String toString() { return value; } }
then store the value from your request
String queryx = "Select CusType_ID, CusTypeName from CustomerType"; ResultSet rs = c.createStatement().executeQuery(queryx); while (rs.next()) { int recordNumber = 1; int recNumber =2; String sx = rs.getString("CusTypeName"); String customerID = rs.getString("CusType_ID"); typeBox.addItem(new MyObject(customerID, sx)); }
Finally, get your value back from selected item and store it in your new sql
Object item = comboBox.getSelectedItem(); String value = ((MyObject)item).getKey(); String sql = "INSERT INTO Customer (CustomerType_ID) VALUES ("+ value +");" ;
