Hello Tim, Welcome to the Swing world. What your asking for has been done exactly 1,345,345.76 times (I looked it up). Your talking about binding a JTable to a ResultSet, then implementing the wizz-bang features like multiple column sorting, filtering, finding, etc. For as many times as it's been done, you would think somebody would have written a library. Maybe its a part of the unofficial Swing baptism specified by the Illuminati. Here in the Swing world we also have a great selection of fine craft microbrews. Enjoy and good luck.
