I have a combo box that is initialized to names. As my application runs, I can add and delete new records to an array of Objects. When I delete I really just want to add an asterisk to the end of the name (to indicate deleted) and change the entry in the combo box from name to name*. How do you change the value of a combo box entry at a specific index?
I'm not trying to update the name that displays in the combo box, I'm trying to change one of the entries in the combo box to a different value but still keep all the other entries the same.

I have resolved the issue.
I remove all items from the combo box but first remove the item listener so that nothing is triggered during the removal of items. Then I can add items to the combo box from scratch. When that's done I add the item listener back to the combox box and thinsg are back to normal.
