Ah.
An example:
1. Have your table model backed by a List - each entry is an object
containing data for an entire row. So - 6 elements in the collection, 6 rows
in the table.
2. Have a setData(List) method, which calls fireTableDataChanged.
3. Have a constructor which has a List argument - this should be passed to
setData(List)
4. Your implementation of getValueAt(int,int) should grab row data from your
list, then return data corresponding to the desired column.
I recommend Geary's "Graphic Java" volumes.
