JTable RowSelection Problem

Question

Hello,
I have a JTable with the ListSeletionModel as MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION. My requirement includes the use of Date-Chooser frame with which I can select a date and set the date related fields in the JTable.(foreg:validfrom and validto).This date-choosing part is working fine,but my probelm is with the row selection.
The situation should be :
- Select a Row
- If the column name is Validfrom or Validto,date-chooser pops up and date can be choosen.
- set the date to the related cells after choosing in the JTable using setValueAt method...
But, my problem is when I first Select a Row and click on the cells related to ValidFrom or ValidTo,the Date-chooser doesnt popup,instead when I first Select the cells whose columnname is either Validfrom or Validto,the date-chooser pops and I can set the dates and this row is now the selected row,
But I want to first select a row and then select the column as validfrom or validto and let the date-chooser pop up and then set the date to these fields for the row selected initially.
Here is the code:
        int cols = table.getColumnModel().getColumnCount();
        cells = new JTextField(20);      
        for (int i = 0; i < cols; i++) {
            TableColumn col = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(i);
            col.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(cells));
table.getSelectionModel().addListSelectionListener(new ListSelectionListener() {
            public Date date;
            public Date present;
            boolean test = true;
            String key = null;
            public void valueChanged(ListSelectionEvent e) { 
                int selectedRow = table.convertRowIndexToModel(table.getSelectedRow());
                int selectedColumn = table.convertColumnIndexToModel(table.getSelectedColumn());
                int columns = table.getColumnModel().getColumnCount();
                key = (String)table.getColumnModel().getColumn(selectedColumn).getHeaderValue();             
                if (key.equalsIgnoreCase("ValidFrom") || (key.equalsIgnoreCase("ValidTo"))) {
                    String tmpDate = (String) table.getModel().getValueAt(selectedRow, selectedColumn);
                    if (tmpDate == null) {
                        Date today = new Date();
                        DATE_FORMAT.format(today);
                        this.date = today;
                        DATE_CHOOSER.setLocationRelativeTo(cells);
                        Date newDate = DATE_CHOOSER.select(this.date);
                        if (newDate == null) {
                            return;
                        cells.setText(DATE_FORMAT.format(newDate));
                        table.getModel().setValueAt(cells.getText(), selectedRow, selectedColumn);
                        table.columnSelectionChanged(e);
                    } else {
                        Date currentDate = UfisTime.getTimeStamp(tmpDate);
                        this.present = currentDate;
                        //   DATE_FORMAT.format(currentDate);
                        DATE_CHOOSER.setLocationRelativeTo(cells);
                        Date newDate = DATE_CHOOSER.select(this.present);
                        if (newDate == null) {
                            return;
                        cells.setText(DATE_FORMAT.format(newDate));
                        table.getModel().setValueAt(cells.getText(), selectedRow, selectedColumn);
                        table.columnSelectionChanged(e);
        });

Thanks!
Do you know of any way to get around it. I've tried requestFocus() without success. Did your answer mean that there is a problem with this method too?
