Update JTable cells via setValueAt

Question

Hello all,
I'm trying to implement a setValueAt method using an arrayList.....no success.What listeners should I have set up(For JTable or my table model)? I am new at this and I'm trying to update the JTable cells after a query from some db. Could anyone help?
When trying to change the a value in the table I get these errors:
"Exception occurred during event dispatching:
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String
at CachingResultSetTableModel.getValueAt(CachingResultSetTableModel.java:37)
at javax.swing.JTable.getValueAt(JTable.java:1711)
at javax.swing.JTable.prepareRenderer(JTable.java:3530)"
public void setValueAt(Object avalue, int r, int c){
if(r < cache.size()){
row[c] = (Object[])cache.set(r, avalue);
fireTableCellUpdated(r, c);
}//setValueAt
*********For reference here's the getValueAt method*************************
public Object getValueAt(int r, int c){
if(r < cache.size()){
row = (Object[])cache.get(r);
return row[c];
else
return null;
}//getValueAt

I would think that everone who starts off with JTable will have a couple of concept problems. I am also going thru this learnig curve. It looks to me ( the blind leading the blind etc) like your basic table has strange data in it. The problem is occuring when the JTable is trying to setup the data from the table model.
I don't think its anything to do with setValueAt.
I kept going back to TableMap, TableSorter and JDBCAdaptor examples and copying the code from them to come right.> I debug by putting a System.out .... in all the methods until I get to where the code is giving trouble.
Good luck [email protected]
