Hi jbarrez,
Its not a string.i have a table with columns "SSN, NAME, INCOME".

I have an external jsp with form parameters same as columns "SSN, NAME, INCOME" which is attached to user task.

Question 1: i want to populate the table's data i.e., ssn, name, income onto form using ACtiviti bpmn.
Question 2: is it possible to start the process with the table data instead of variable map.
