I have a JTable in a JScrollPane and just cant get any scrollbars to
show.  No matter how wide I make the table columns when the frame shows all
of the columns are shown squished together with no scrollbars.  I have both
scrollbars set to as needed.
I call this method as the last call in jbInit

    private void initColumnSizes() {
        TableColumn column = null;
        Component comp = null;
        int width = 0;
        int colCount = m_tblModel.getColumnCount();
        for (int i=0; i<colCount; i++) {
            column = m_tbl.getColumnModel().getColumn(i);
            width = ViewerResource.TABLE_COLUMN_WIDTHS[i];

            column.setPreferredWidth(width);
        }
    }

Do I have to have data in the model before this works??
I never had any problems before using jdk 1.2 but this time I
am using jdk 1.3.  What am I doing wrong?

thanks
