Andreas,

Thanks for your response.  There are two easier ways to do what you describe
with a check box.  Unfortunately neither solves my JButton problem.

The easiest way is simply not to use any custom cell renderer or editor at
all.

All you need to do is return Boolean.class from the overridden
getColumnClass method in your TableModel.  When the default code sees this,
it kindly makes you a Renderer with a JCheckBox.

If you need to edit the value, simply return true from isCellEditable in the
same way.  Bingo.

The other way is to use the Default Editor and Renderers built into Swing by
simply using the correct constructor.

Your solution does not work well with a large value for the Row height,
since the Component is automatically resized and looks really ugly.  If we
could figure a way to tell the button to use some sort of insets from the
cell borders, then everyone would be happy.

Thanks again for your help.

David
