Saving the content of JTable into a ascii file?

Question

Suppose I have a JTable with certain cols and rows, is there an easy way to retrieve the table contents and save them into a ascii file on disk?
Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

If colCount or rowCount is quite big, the "for loop" will spend some time to get the table content. Is there other way (not doing "for loops") to get the contents of JTable?
Thanks,
Helen
TableModel model = mytable.getModel()
PrintWriter writer = new
PrintWriter(BufferedWriter(new
FileWriter("test.dat")));
int colCount = col < model.getColumnCount();
int rowCount = model.getRowCount();
for (int row=0; row < rowCount; row++)
for (int col=0; col < colCount; col++)
Object value = model.getValueAt(row, col);
if (value != null)
ll) writer.print(value.toString());
if (col < rowCount - 1) writer.print("\t");
writer.println();
writer.close();What's so difficult with this, that the question pops
up every week ?
