If I have a jdbTable with TableHeader on an applet window I can set
column properties using

      tabcolmod2 = jdbTable2.getColumnModel();
      tabcolmod2.getColumn(0).setHeaderValue("Code 4");
      tabcolmod2.getColumn(1).setWidth(30);
      tabcolmod2.getColumn(1).setHeaderValue("Title 4");
      tabcolmod2.getColumn(1).setWidth(200);

but if they are inside a JScrollPane, set up with

    jScrollPane1 = jdbTable1.createScrollPaneForTable(jdbTable1);

and apply the code

      tabcolmod1 = jdbTable1.getColumnModel();
      tabcolmod1.getColumn(0).setHeaderValue("Code 5");
      tabcolmod1.getColumn(1).setWidth(30);
      tabcolmod1.getColumn(1).setHeaderValue("Title 5");
      tabcolmod1.getColumn(1).setWidth(200);

then the column heading text appears as I wish, but the width settings
are ignored.

Any suggestions ?  Thanks!
