I havent worked with the dbSwing components but in pure swing you are meant
to create your own TableModel and put relevant code in isCellEditable()

Sounds like the default implementation for dbTableModel is for cells not to
be editable. I would guess that if you want to make your cells editable then
you should create your own table model inheritied from dbTableModel and
place relevant code in isCellEditable. I think its pretty dangerous editing
Inprise source.
