Here is some source code from swing tutorial. (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html). I find it can't catch the NumberFormatException at column[3]. When I enter a String into column[3], the cell's border turns red and the table is dead. Can anyone tell me why? Any consideration will be greatly appreciated!

This is just a preference of mine. I would create an editor and not allow invalid data in the first place.

ps When posting code, use the code tags.
