JTable Header only shows when there are elements in table

[Frank Falcone]

I am using a JTable inside a JScrollPane and want the Headers to
appear all the time. Currently, They only appear if there are
elements inside the stringtablemodel. Also, I would like to manually
set the widths of each column. I see how to disable the automatic
setting of the width, but not how to specify the width.

How can this be done? Is there any sample code showing this?

Frank.
