See the API doc for JTable? See the "How to Use Tables" link at the top of that? That explains how to do custom rendering. You just need to render using a JLabel with its icon set.

No, you've misunderstood the rendering described in the 'how to.' The renderer provides a component to render the data in that cell - the component is not the data itself. You need to implement the TableCellRenderer interface.

JTable provides a default renderer to display icons. You just need to tell the table what type of data is stored in each column so it can use the apppriate renderer. Simple example: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=57&threadID=604783

Read the [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html#sorting]Table Sorting[/url] example. An icon is placed in the header to indicate the direction of the sort. They probably use a custom renderer since the header assumes the data for the headers is a String Object.

The tutorial shows you the 3 lines of code you need to add sorting to your TableModel.
