Re: INSERT data in JTABLE -- JAVA400-L

Hello All,
I found the answer in an another forum for the dyanmic
data addition in  a JTable, only I dont know who this
works !!!! heh, heh, help please.
alright, Here is what he says

>Anyway, I am assuming that u want to use the
>constructor JTable(Vector rowData, Vector
columnNames) >and that u need to show the DataObjects
properties as >the rowData for the table.You already
have the >columnName vector(great!). The rowData
vector

a

>Adding a row to the table would be achieved by adding

fireTableDataChanged().

JTable jt = new JTable(vec, columnNames);  //vec is my
data Vector 
scrPayments.getViewport().add(jt);                    
 //scrPayments is
a scrollpane
        
for(int i = 0; i < vec.size(); i++){
        
jt.setValueAt(((Vector)vec.elementAt(i)).elementAt(0),
i, 0); 
        
jt.setValueAt(((Vector)vec.elementAt(i)).elementAt(1),
i, 1);
        
jt.setValueAt(((Vector)vec.elementAt(i)).elementAt(2),
i, 2);
        
jt.setValueAt(((Vector)vec.elementAt(i)).elementAt(3),
i, 3);
        
jt.setValueAt(((Vector)vec.elementAt(i)).elementAt(4),
i, 4);
}

Whats happening here,
Thanx again,
Rao
