Reading a JTable?

So I am making a Jtable that will store grades; the ending column will be your final grade average the top row contains the assignment names and so on. So I know how to make the table but I do not know how I can read the table when the user inputs a grade. Any help will be greatly apreciated.

Also can anyone explain to me why it takes longer for the table to load than the actual window it is annoying?

Whatis a Jtable? Googling...googling...googling... OH! Okay! I got it now!

Strange... exact Java version number and computer specifications please?

I don't quite understand how that is relavant, but meh.

Java SE 1.6 (Ecplise IDE FTW!!!)

Win7(64-bit).

RAM : 6 GB(Pretty good for a laptop. ^^)

Other stuff... LAWL.

Anyways I am more concered about how to read/add/divide the elements of the table rather than it taking a few seconds to load up.

I've personally never used JTable but Java 7 is out, so you should download it.

Ah man. :-( Is there anything else I could use?

See the top right corner of the page for the version number...

What do you mean by that?

Also, you don't have to update your version of Java, but I'm saying your code might run better if your Java is more up to date. And there's nothing else you can use for Java. Java SE is the best Java out there. Furthermore, if your Java is up to date you can use programs made in Java 7. Though most Java programs should run good with Java 6 just because Java 7 is so new.

I mean that is there any other import I could use to get the "spread sheet" kind of look?

I have no idea what DB is talking about though. ^^

I didn't notice that the thread had a considerable amount of posts that I skipped.

Don't worry lego, niether do I.

I figured it out. ^^ I will post a tutorial on it later.

I'm sensing the code 'JTabel myJTabel = new JTabel(possibleParameters...)' appearing on the forum soon!

I would like him to explain in more detail what a JTable is. Even after googling it, I still don't quite understand it. I am guessing JTable means Java Table, but I am not sure.

JBlah always means Java Blah. lol. You know like JFrame is Java Frame? ;D

So I did get it! I am so smart! (not really)

The above sentance was true, except for the parts where you weren't saying 'not really' jk
