double click to edit combo in JTable

[alex earnshaw]

I am using JComboBox as an editor in a column in a JTable. At the moment whenever I click on one of the cells in this column the combo immediately drops down and shows the options.
Is there some way I can stop this happening unless the user double clicks on the cell?
Thankyou

Try the following:

        DefaultCellEditor editor = new DefaultCellEditor(yourComboBox);
        editor.setClickCountToStart(2);
        yourColumn.setCellEditor(editor);

thankyou so much, it worked a treat! That problem was something I've been trying to solve for weeks on and off but was getting nowhere...
