feeding custom actionForm to a jsp page?

Hello,

I have a form for submitting data which can be optionally used to 
substitute new data instead of any other past entry by the same user. If 
you check a 'change' checkbox before pressing submit - brings you back 
to the same form, but now there's also a "radio-button" list of past 
entries, and you can choose one to write new data on top of. Original 
chain of events is:

prepop.java -> submit.jsp -> process.java -> end.jsp

If a checkbox is checked, however, there is one more 'loop'(for 
populating list of past entries):

prepop.java -> submit.jsp -> prepop.java -> submit.jsp -> process.java 
-> end.jsp


All I want is to be able to reproduce submitted values the second time 
around on submit.jsp, just like the validator does in case something's 
wrong. But it creates a new ActionForm when forwarded to for the second 
time and all the values are lost.. Is there a way to feed it my already 
populated actionForm?

This might be the clumsiest way to do this, but I'm relatively new to 
this and couldn't figure anything better by myself. Any tips are greatly 
appreciated.
Thanks.

Max
