JTable cell selection event

[Don]

Greetings,

I have an application that uses a JTable. When the user changes the
value in one of the cells and moves to another cell (with either the
mouse or keyboard), I want to do something with the new value of the
changed cell, any idea how I can capture this event?

Thanks in advance,
Don

I am not sure, but try to play with
JTable.editingStopped() - or -
JTable.getCellEditor().addCellEditorListener(....)

-regards...

You must implement this method (in table model):
public void setValueAt(Object val, int row, int col) !
Whenever user exits the cell, this method is called.
Does it works?

You can use the quicktable verison of JTable, it generates an event
whenever a user modifies a cell and exits the cell. You have the
option to accept the user changes or set a new value to the cell.

java.lang.Object cellValueChanged(int row, int col, java.lang.Object
oldValue, java.lang.Object newValue)

For more information have a look at QuickTable

Cheers,

Thanks Liz,

That sounds like just the job - I'm new to Swing, and coming from a
Delphi backgound (all bow), I find it frustratingly difficult to
accomplish what ought to fairly straightforward tasks such as this.

Thanks Again,
Don
