--------------6B849C443F74DBF8913B13DB Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi everyone, Can anyone help with this frustrating little problem ...... I've got a JdbTable into which I load date tagged data. I want to be able to highlight any date more than x days ago by showing the cell with a different background colour. My cunning plan was to hook into the rendering process and override getTableCellRendererComponent(...) to test the value in the cell and set the background colour of the renderer appropriately, but ..... JdbTable uses a Public Member class DBCellRenderer and I'm trying to define a class with public class SpecialRenderer extends JdbTable.DBCellRenderer but the compiler complains that it can't find DBCellRenderer in class JdbTable. Am I attempting the impossible (I'll admit that I'm not too well up on Inner Classes et al) or can someone suggest another way of achieving the same result. Thanks in advance.
