I want to use a name column as a button. I am using java swing in Net beans software. How do I get it ? I read docs and even googled. But nothing is helping me out. Can somebody help me to change all the cells of Name column to buttons?

search here, swing + jtable + jbutton – mKorbel Sep 15 '13 at 06:09 — mKorbel, Sep 15 '13 at 06:09
That huge array makes my feel dizzy. – Stefano Sanfilippo Sep 15 '13 at 20:48 — Stefano Sanfilippo, Sep 15 '13 at 20:48

Take a look to oracle tutorials. These sections will help you

Using renderers

Using Other Editors

You need to create a class that implements the TableCellEditor interface. The AbstractCellEditor class is a good superclass to use. It implements TableCellEditor's superinterface, CellEditor, saving you the trouble of implementing the event firing code necessary for cell editors.

Here you have related question with example and links is it possible to include jbutton in jtable

Here you have an example by @camickr a swing guru table button column

please refer my code..and tell me what changes i need to make to set all cells under name column to set to buttons? – user2780656 Sep 15 '13 at 06:27
what have you tried so far with the information i gave you? there you have the links from oracle tutorials and a complete example with source code of what you need. – nachokk Sep 15 '13 at 06:31
I changes java.lang.String to javax.Swing.Jbutton but its still given some errors. – user2780656 Sep 15 '13 at 06:33
you want the column name as a button? or all column cells? – nachokk Sep 15 '13 at 06:35
Column cells as button – user2780656 Sep 15 '13 at 06:35
Ok then read the examples i gave you.. You need to create your own renderer and editor. You can use the one that camickr did you have the source code. Then you have to setup the renderer to the jtable as is specified in oracle tutorials. – nachokk Sep 15 '13 at 06:37
@nachokk nice .... ignore this person +1 – mKorbel Sep 15 '13 at 06:51
What's wrong with you ?? – user2780656 Sep 15 '13 at 06:53
