problem in accessing combobox value

[vikassawant]

hi all,
Please help me.

I declare combo box in one file named as test.java i.e. cmb1 and I want to access value of that combobox in another file.
In test.java I declare string str as public and assign combo box value as

public String str;
str = cmb1.getSelectedItem();

I wanna access str value in another java file.I write there code for access value is

test tst = new test();
String t1;
t1 = tst.str;

System.out.println("value of Str is ....."+t1);

but I never get the value of combo box...It gives 'null' output...

Please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance.

hi friends,
I got the solution,I just declare that string as static instead of public.

Thanks.
