The ChoiceControl is a singleton in the model-view architecture.  You
can't use it like you are thinking.  It gets bound to a field of a row,
not to a subset of all the values of a column.

Check out
http://www.borland.com/devsupport/jbuilder/qanda/499.html

What you can do is, do a query, and plow through that
result set, adding the results of the query to your ChoiceControl.

Then, selecting a value from that Choice should populate that
field, which will get posted when it gets resolved.
