hi..i did a search of the forum..i found many similar queries regarding the changing of colors of rows in a JTable but i still do not understand..I know i have to use the TableCellRenderer but i'm not so familiar...Could u help me out again? Thanks alot..

OK, here's an example off the top of my head:

Code:

---

// Create a renderer to color a row
class MyTableCellRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
  public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
                    Object value,
                    boolean isSelected,
                    boolean hasFocus,
                    int row,
                    int column) {
  // let the superclass do all the work
  Component renderer = super.getTableCellRendererComponent(
                  value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
  // Change background to the required color
  // if this is the required row
  if (row == requiredRow) {
      renderer.setBackground(requiredColor);
  }
  return renderer;
}

...

// Set this renderer for all class types (i.e. columns) in the table
myTable.setDefaultRenderer( Object.class, new MyTableCellRenderer());

This is untested code, but it shows the basic technique.

The higher, the fewer...
