Hello Shweta

I assume you know how to insert the listbox itself into the form with the help of the Scout perspective. If not, please say so.

I suggest that you use a LookupCall and an associated LookupService to load the data.
In the list box in your form, simply override

getConfiguredLookupCall()

and return the class of your new LookupCall.
For your LookupService, have a look at the AbstractSqlLookupService, where you only need to override "getConfiguredSqlSelect()" to get you started.

The Scout perspective will easily let you create a LookupCall with a LookupService, by right clicking the "LookupCall" folder(in the "shared" part of your project) and choosing the "New LookupCall" option.

Does this help you?

Patrick
