Setting objects on not visible rows

Question

Hi there,
I'm building a TreeTable (on the 1st column a tree, n the 2nd one some checkboxes, and on all the others some statistics collected from the tree). Particularly, the seconf column allows to select a bunch of tree nodes for later treatments.
Say all the tree is not expanded and I check a node that has some of its descendant childs node not visibles (parent not currently expanded). I'd like my program to automatically check all descendant childs nodes of the currently being check node - INCLUDED all childs that are not visible.
In my cellEditor (I can use "row" as the only information to get the right node), I currently have that kind of ugly code to do so:
public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, int row, int column) {
        CTestTreeNodeData testTreeNodeData = (CTestTreeNodeData) sortTreeTable.getValueAt(row, 0); // get the tree node -> column=0
    short newState = computeNewState(testTreeNodeData.getState()); // compute the new state ("checked" or "not checked")
t    estTreeNodeData.setState(newState); // set this new value on the model
switch (newState) {
     case CThreeStateCheckboxModel.SELECTED:
     case CThreeStateCheckboxModel.PARTIALLY_SELECTED:
               // need to do this in this order to get correctly the rows
               mainFrame.expandNodeAll(row); // first expand of descendant childs !!!!               
               mainFrame.checkNodeAll(row, newState); // check all childs from current row (this code is incrementing row, then verify from the new treepath to see if it's a descendant or not and redo it recursively
               mainFrame.collpaseNode(row); // HACK !!!! restore how it was before
               break;
      return defaultCellEditor.getTableCellEditorComponent(table, threeStateCheckbox, isSelected, row, column);which looks very bad for me... Is there a better solution to change data on some currently hidden nodes if we have only the row has input ?
Thx,

Hi Namsheed,
I think this is normal because the travel request does not include any booking details.
The travel request is before any online bookings.
So might be it would help to explain in detail your process and used components.
