it sounds like you need the right layout manager, not necessarily a JTable. Unless the result resembles a large grid of components? Will the result look like a table?

Sounds likes a job for LayoutManagers, not JTable.

Yeah, your question is about which layout manager to use. Describe your problem over in the swing forum and it'll take camickr about 3 seconds to answer.

right now GridLayout

does GridBagLayout let me tell it where to go?

> does GridBagLayout let me tell it where to go?Yes, via constraints. Take the tutorial: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/gridbag.html
