I am rewriting an Oracle Forms application to a Java app using Applets and using Swing components. I need to implement a dynamic table, as in Forms, where the user can update the table, and the changes are reflected back in the database.
How can I do this ?

Thanks in advance,
S

Hello Sandy-

Welcome to JavaRanch.

On your way in you may have missed that we have a policy on screen names here at JavaRanch. Basically, it must consist of a first name, a space, and a last name. Since yours does not conform with it, please take a moment to change it, which you can do right here.

As to your question, look into the javax.swing.JTable class, which implements editable tables. Oracke Forms probably does more, but I don't know it, so can't recommened what else to use. The Java Tutorial has a section on building GUIs with Swing -of which JTable is a part- which will come in handy. Check it out and come back here with more concrete questions.
