Have you read up on the following method in javax.swing.JTable?

    /**
     * Overrides JComponent's setToolTipText method to allow use of the
     * renderer's tips (if the renderer has text set).
     * <p>
     * NOTE: For JTable to properly display tooltips of its renderers
     *       JTable must be a registered component with the ToolTipManager.
     *       This is done automatically in initializeLocalVars(), but
     *       if at a later point JTable is told setToolTipText(null)
     *       it will unregister the table component, and no tips from
     *       renderers will display anymore.
     *
     * @see JComponent#getToolTipText
     */
