You install a component that implements the TableCellRenderer interface.  
It will get called to return the component that displays the contents of 
that cell.  Check out DefaultTableCellRenderer for ideas.  You then must 
tell the JTable to use it, by installing as the default renderer (there 
is one renderer per data type class in this mode), by column, or you can 
create an anonymous subclass of JTable and override the getCellRenderer 
method:

table = new JTable(...) 
{
  public TableCellRenderer getCellRenderer(int row, int column) 
  {
     if ((row == 0) && (column == 0)) 
     {
       return myCustomRenderer;
     }
     return super.getCellRenderer(row, column);
  }
};

If you do it by column, you must install the renderer in the TableColumn 
object itself.
