Morning !!!

I'm using DTO and DAO.
I have a table with two columns: ID and names
My Combo contains names from that table.
I want to get the ID from items on my Combo when I pick one.

Thanks, I'm a beginner on SWT.

UPDATE
Hey people, I resolve it. Just put the ID inside your Combo besides NAME and it works.

If you want to keep the ids and names somewhat close together then you
could use Combo.setData(name, id) to store them and Combo.getData(name)
to look up an id based on a name.

I'd think more typically you would have these associations available
from some kind of model object, which would provide the id associated
with a name without any involvement from swt.
