Which event of JTable i have to implement to get the row clicked and retreive the data.

ovidiucraciun

public boolean isCellEditable(int row,
int column)from DefaultTableModel
tells if the cell from row and column is editable. You have to do overwrite
this function in your TableModel and
to tell explicitly what cell is editable and what cell is not.

concerning the other issue:
public void setValueAt(Object aValue,
int row,
int column)
from the DefaultTableModel is called avery time the user enter a new value for a cell. If you overwrite this function also you'll be able to know every time when the user tries to change
a cell value

jTable.addMouseListener
(
      new java.awt.event.MouseAdapter( )
      {
            public void mouseClicked( java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt )
            {
                  jTableMouseClicked( evt );
            }
      }
);
private void jTableMouseClicked( java.awt.event.MouseEvent me )
{
      // find the cell
      int       row = jTable.getSelectedRow( );
      int       col = jTable.getSelectedColumn( );
      if ( me.getModifiers( ) == me.BUTTON1_MASK )
      {
            // add code for first mouse button
      }
      if ( me.getModifiers( ) == me.BUTTON3_MASK )
      {
            // add code for second mouse button
      }
}
