isCellEditable() works fine for me

    
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.*;
 
class Testing extends JFrame
{
  public Testing()
  {
    setLocation(400,100);
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    String colNames[] = {"Name", "Age"};
    Object[][] data = {{"joe","21"},{"fred","31"},{"mary","22"}};
    DefaultTableModel dtm = new DefaultTableModel(data,colNames);
    JTable table = new JTable(dtm){
      public boolean isCellEditable(int row,int column){
        return false;}};
    JScrollPane sp = new JScrollPane(table);
    sp.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(300,100));
    getContentPane().add(sp);
    pack();
  }
  public static void main (String[] args){new Testing().setVisible(true);}
}
