Removing row and collumn in JTable

Question

guys i have problem regarding JTable.. ive tried to search over the forum to find suitable answer but nothing fits in....
i need to refresh my JTable but i cant....
i've tried validate(), repaint() but it doesnt seem to work properly.
this is the portion of my code that generate the JTable
public void getTable()
          Statement statement;
          ResultSet resultSet;
          try
               String query = "SELECT * FROM Booking ";               statement = con.createStatement();
               resultSet = statement.executeQuery(query);
               displayResultSet(resultSet);
               statement.close();
          catch(SQLException sqle)
               sqle.printStackTrace();
     public void displayResultSet(ResultSet rs) throws SQLException
          boolean moreRecords = rs.next();
          if(!moreRecords)
               JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this,"Data not found !","Information Message",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
               return;
          Vector columnHeads = new Vector();
          Vector rows = new Vector();
          try
               ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
               for(int i = 1; i <= rsmd.getColumnCount(); ++i)
                    columnHeads.addElement(rsmd.getColumnName(i));
                    do
                         rows.addElement(getNextRow(rs,rsmd));
                    }while(rs.next());
                    table = new JTable(rows, columnHeads);
                    table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
                    table.setFont(new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,10));
                    JScrollPane scroller = new JScrollPane(table,JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED,JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);
                    gbConstraints.fill=GridBagConstraints.BOTH;
                    addComponent(scroller,4,1,4,4); // i use gridbaglayout
          catch(SQLException sqle){
               sqle.printStackTrace();
     public Vector getNextRow(ResultSet rs, ResultSetMetaData rsmd) throws SQLException
          Vector currentRow = new Vector();
          for(int i = 1; i <= rsmd.getColumnCount(); ++i)
          switch(rsmd.getColumnType(i))
               case Types.VARCHAR:
                    currentRow.addElement(rs.getString(i));
                    break;
               case Types.INTEGER:
                    currentRow.addElement(new Long(rs.getLong(i)));
                    break;
               default:
                    System.out.println("Type was: "+rsmd.getColumnTypeName(i));
          return currentRow;
when i pressed a button this method will execute again but will show the new updated query if it the database have allready been updated. i tried to validate and repaint but it doesnt work...
can some one out there tell me how to perform such task ?

ive tried to search over the forum to find suitable answerJTable is a Swing component and there is a forum for Swing questions. Maybe if you searched the Swing forum (and posted your question there) you would have had better results.
Here's an [url http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=504709]example (from the Swing forum) that shows how to repopulate a JTable by resetting the DataModel of the table with new data.
