How to filter using ListSelectionModel

Question

Does anyone have any sample code for filtering selections using a ListSelectionModel?
I have a JTable, and I only want certain rows to be 'highlightable/selected" depending on what type of custom object resides in that row.
An example would be if I had a JTable that has rows containing either text files, folders, or mp3s. I only would want the rows containing text files to be highlightable/selectable.
Thank you

ok I figure it out. Here is the code for anyone interested.
public class MyTablePanel
   public static int MODE_CURRENT = 2;
   public static final int MODE_SELECT_ALL = 0;
   public static final int MODE_DESELECT_ALL = 1;
   public static final int MODE_NORMAL = 2;
   protected JTable myTable;
   public MyTablePanel(){
      myTable = new JTable();     
      // add this into your constructor
      ListSelectionModel lsm = table.getSelectionModel();
      lsm.addListSelectionListener( new MySelectionHandler() );
      table.setSelectionModel( lsm );
   public void quickTest(){      
      if ( MODE_CURRENT = MODE_SELECT_ALL){
        myTable.getSelectionModel().setSelectionInterval( 0, tab.getRowCount()-1 );
      else if ( MODE_CURRENT = MODE_DESELECT_ALL){
        myTable.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
      else{   
   class MySelectionHandler implements ListSelectionListener {
      public void valueChanged( ListSelectionEvent e ) {
         if ( MODE_CURRENT == MODE_SELECT_ALL ) {
            System.out.println( "select all" );
            ListSelectionModel lsm = ( ListSelectionModel ) e.getSource();
            lsm.removeListSelectionListener(this);
            final MyTableModel model = ( MyTableModel ) table.getModel();
            if ( !lsm.isSelectionEmpty() ) {
               lsm.setValueIsAdjusting( true );
               int numRows = model.getRowCount();
               // get value
               // if value ends in .jpg, set to selected
               for ( int i = 0; i <= numRows; i++ ) {
                  if ( lsm.isSelectedIndex( i ) ) {
                     final String s = ( String ) model.getValueAt( i, MyTableModel.TYPE_COL );
                     System.out.println( "Selection(" + i + "): " + s );
                     if ( !s.equals( "MyCriteria" ) ) // Search for your criteria
                        lsm.removeSelectionInterval( i, i );
               lsm.setValueIsAdjusting( false );
            lsm.addListSelectionListener(this);
         else if (MODE_CURRENT == MODE_DESELECT_ALL){
            System.out.println( "deselect all" );
            ListSelectionModel lsm = ( ListSelectionModel ) e.getSource();
            lsm.clearSelection();
         else {
            System.out.println( "normal" );
         MODE_CURRENT = MODE_NORMAL; // reset after executed
}
