Answer 1

this a re-arrangment of the code, i've tried this from one of the posts
but still, it doesn't show nothing
<code>
tableData = new Vector();
Vector titles = new Vector();
int currentRow = 0;
try
Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"); // load the driver
conn = DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://213.107.6.45;user=foo;password=foobar");
// connect to SQL server
conn.setCatalog("Northwind");
// choose the database
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
// create an SQL statement
String query = "SELECT * FROM Products;";
table = stmt.executeQuery(query);
ResultSetMetaData md = table.getMetaData();
// get the meta data
final int numberOfColumns = md.getColumnCount();
// Vector columnNames = new Vector();
// for(int i = 0; i < numberOfColumns; i++)
// columnNames.add(md.getColumnName(i+1)); //indexed from 1, not 0
// Iterator it = columnNames.iterator();
// int i = 30;
if(table.next())
//rowData(table.getObject(1).toString());
//jTextFieldField2.setText(table.getObject(2).toString());
Vector rowVector = new Vector();
for (int currentCol = 1; currentCol < numCols; currentCol++)
Object obj = table.getObject(currentCol);
rowVector.addElement(obj);
//rowVector.add(table.getString (currentCol + 1));
tableData.addAll(rowVector);
//tableData.addElement(rowVector);
//currentRow++;
for (int currentCol=1; currentCol<= numCols ; currentCol++)
titles.addElement(md.getColumnLabel(currentCol));
// Close connection to database
stmt.close();
conn.close();
}//end try
catch (Exception ex)
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, ex.getMessage());
}// end catch
JTable table = new JTable(tableData,titles);
JScrollPane scrollpane = new JScrollPane(table);
this.getContentPane().add(scrollpane);
