Add ActionListeners to the radio buttons which
all point to a single method:

   void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {

     // based on the value of "e", get the
     // desiredHeaderName

     table.getColumnModel()
          .getColumn(index)
          .setHeaderValue(desiredHeaderName);
   }

Man, I've been looking at this stuff too long. That was too easy. :)

Thanks.

What is the proper call to update the change? I used
table.getTableHeader().updateUI. It works but is there a more appropriate
way?

When I whipped up a demo of what I suggested
in my previous post, I didn't call any update
method ... nothing more than the code given.
I did however make the selection using a
combo box.
