Form Bean vs. State Bean

I have a state bean named addressLookup that has 3 variables (address, city,
zipCode) and setters and getters for all 3 properties.

I am now trying to write my form bean that I can access in my jsp.  I have
imported the addressLookup state bean and am now trying to determine how to
use this.

If I create 3 variables (address, city, zipCode) within the form bean and
new setters and getters, all is dandy.  However, I am trying to figure out
how to reference those variables and properties in my state bean.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?  I looked on the Struts site and
could only find a textual description of the difference between the state
and form beans.  

Thanks
Courtney

Have you looked into the DynaActionForm?

Have you downloaded the Struts binary and/or source dist?

Have you deployed it correctly on a servlet container such as Tomcat (my
favorite)???
