I am writting an swing application.
After querying from db, I have to display the result in the following format:

Field 1  Field2  Field3
xxx      yyyy    zzz
aaa      bbbb    c
ddd      ff      gg

you can display it as HTML - use JEditorPane with content type "text/html":

      StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer();
      buff.append("<Table>");
      buff.append("<TR>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("Field 1");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("Field 2");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("Field 3");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("</TR>");

      buff.append("<TR>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("xxx");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("yyy");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("zzz");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("</TR>");

      buff.append("<TR>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("aaa");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("bbbb");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("c");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("</TR>");

      buff.append("<TR>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("ddd");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("ff");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("<TD>");
      buff.append("gg");
      buff.append("</TD>");
      buff.append("</TR>");

      buff.append("</Table>");
      jEditorPane1.setContentType("text/html");
      jEditorPane1.setText(buff.toString());

Just look in the api help at the JTable constructors :

JTable(Object[][], Object[])
and
JTable(Vector, Vector)

I believe the second constructor is more realiable for you since the size of a Vector can grow dinamically, while of an array not (you don't know exactly in a resultSet the number of rows/columns)
