Thanks for reading.

I wonder is there anything else apart from Vector that I can do to add data to JTable.

The DefaultTableModel uses Vectors because it makes the TableModel dynamic. That is you can easily add or remove rows/columns from the model.

If you don't want to use a Vector then you can create a custom TableModel to store the data any way that you want.

Check out Row Table Model . It gives an example

1. of how to create a custom TableModel using an ArrayList for the data
2. of to write a generic TableModel that is reusable
