JTable and JButton - Focus issue

[Gurumurthy Ramamurthy]

I have a simple GUI.
I have a JTable with some rows and columns.
I have a JButton.
Default JTable behaviour is that -
if you press "TAB" in the last cell, the cursor goes to the first cell.
But what I need is, if you press "TAB" in the last cell, the focus should go out of JTable and select the JButton.

How to achieve this?

Okay Darryl is Correct : Ctrl + Tab is a good Alternative

Sorry Darryl I'll try to make my posts more meaningfull

You can find it in JFrame class

Digen, have you ever heard of the Java API? Have you ever read the API for JFrame?

Press Ctrl-Tab to tab out of the table.

This is standard and expected GUI behavior, not just in Java but in all visual platforms.

I was not sure as I mentioned, this was because I was a Former NetBeans user but later turned to Eclipse
and I think I saw it somewhere in properties window in NetBeans but I think I was Wrong and will see to it that I post proper suggesstions or codes
and try to help and understand more.
