combobox query

[supriya acharya]

Hello

I am adding item in one combo box and ther is another combo box in which same item is added simultaneously and i have written itemlistener to 2nd combo box..but when i am adding item to that combo box it is going in statechanged function though it is not changing its state..is adding an item to the combo box indicates state change???

here is my code

addlabels.addItem("New Label");
addlabels.addItem(showlabels);
labels.addItem(inputlabel);
/* addlable and labesl are different combo boxes*/

labels.addItemListener(new ItemListener() 
    {
        public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e) 
        {
            int state = e.getStateChange();
            if(state == ItemEvent.SELECTED)
            {
                 choice = (String)labels.getSelectedItem();
                 Vector v = s.requestLabelFile("snehalpatil",choice);
            }     
        }
    });
