All the companies that the user holds stock in should be displayed in a JComboBox when the application is loaded. When the user selects a company from the JComboBox and clicks the Stock Information JButton, the stock information for that company should be displayed in output JTextFields. The provided stocks database contains one table, stockInformation (Fig. 26.38), which has four columns—stockName, stockSymbol, shares and price.
