Your question makes no sense and does not have nearly enough information to make reasonable suggestion. Data is displayed in the order you build the TableModel. If you are using sorting then data is sorted in the appropriate order. If you don't like it ascending, then change the sort order to descending.

Well, the classes that bind the table to the database are not core JDK classes so I don't know how they work. But I would guess you need to customize your SQL query to do what you want.

If the JTable is built on a DefaultTableModel,
and if rows are added with its add() method,
switch to the insert() method and put the row where you want it.
This is model-based ordering of the data.

Data can also be ordered strictly within the view.
See JTable.setRowSorter() and the TableRowSorter class.
