This depends on your model. If youre using DefaultListModel and you are putting Strings inside then
customerList.getSelectedValue().toString()
will work for you.
If you have a custom model, say customerModel which has a method getCustomer(int id) you would use the following to extract the name of the customer e.g.
int selected = customerList.getSelectedIndex()
customerModel.getCustomer(selected).getName()
(This is the wrong forum. Go to the general Java Forum.)
