Column resizing problem in JTable

[AimsLife]

Hi,

I am using jdk1.5 kit for development. I developed a JFrame window
which has JTable in view. JTable columns and rows created using Custom
"TableModel" with the name of "InfoTableModel" extended by
"AbstractTableModel". InfoTableModel contain list of data to be
display. I need customize my table column, can you please guide me how
I can give column width for proper column width?

JTable table;
int column, width;
....
table.getColumnModel().getColumn(column).setPreferredWidth(width);

Usually I have the table in a JScrollPane in a layout that allows it to
resize to the max size allowed by window size & other components. In
this case the preferred widths of the columns is used to set the widths
of the columns RELATIVE to one another. As a rule of thumb I set the
width to 10 x the number of characters I expect the column to contain.
