How to delete a JTable row without using its model

Question

I need to delete a row or insert a row in a JTable without using it's model. The table model for the current JTable extends AbstractTableModel so there are no defined deleteRow or insertRow methods as there are in DefaultTableModel.
Basically, I don't know if the JTables models are going to have a deleteRow or insertRow method as all the models are AbstractTableModels and might or might not have these methods.
Thanks.

I interpreted "I don't have access" as meaning that there isn't a table model for that JTable. For example, you can construct a JTable this way:
public JTable(Vector rowData, Vector columnNames)
And the Vector of row data is what you manipulate to add or delete rows and yet you're not using a table model. If that's how your code is written then you would simply manipulate the rowdata Vector.
However, if you mean that there is a Table model and you're not allowed to change it, then you REALLY need to get permission from your boss to change that table model. Adding a deleteRow(int) method to the TableModel wont break anything that currently exist. And to try to do an end run around the code is a nasty hack. The right way to do it is to add a method to whatever class extends AbstractTableModel and is set as the table model for this JTable.
