You will not find any methods defined in JTable to export to an Excel 
spreadsheet.  But it should be pretty easy to write a comma separated 
values (CSV) file.

Just traverse all of the fields, and write the field values to a text 
file, with commas separating the fields, and newlines separating the 
rows.  You will have to quote strings and such, but it should not be too 
hard.
