Right align a cell in JTable

[asai]

I have a JTable and would like to right align one of the cells. Default all cells is left align, but I would like one of the cells including the header to be right aligned.
How can I do this? Any suggestions?

Moved from New to Java.

Read the API for JTable and follow the link to the tutorial. Go through the section related to renderers.

Good tip. I solved this almost perfect with this code:

 ledgerTable.setModel(new Classes.LedgerGrid());
 TableColumn col = ledgerTable.getColumn("Saldo");
 DefaultTableCellRenderer dtcr = new DefaultTableCellRenderer();
 dtcr.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.RIGHT);
 col.setCellRenderer(dtcr);
 col.setHeaderRenderer(dtcr);

However the HeaderRenderer made the background color on this cellheader disappeared. Any suggestions on this?

You could try my Default Table Header Cell Renderer « Java Tips Weblog for the header. Be sure to go through and understand the code.

Thanks for the tip Darryl, but I only get all the headers aligned. Any suggestions how to align only one of the cells?

ledgerTable.setModel(new Classes.LedgerGrid());
TableColumn col = ledgerTable.getColumn("Saldo");
DefaultTableCellRenderer dtcr = new DefaultTableCellRenderer();
dtcr.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.RIGHT);
col.setCellRenderer(dtcr);
ledgerTable.getTableHeader().setDefaultRenderer(new DefaultTableHeaderCellRenderer());

This right align the content of my table column named "Saldo" and all the headers. In the DefaultTableHeaderCellRenderer class i have this:

setHorizontalAlignment(RIGHT);

But I only wants it for the "Saldo" column.

I managed this, but not completely as I would like. The header design is changed on this column.
I altered the code like this:

DefaultTableHeaderCellRenderer dth = new DefaultTableHeaderCellRenderer();
col.setHeaderRenderer(dth);

As you can see the design is not like I want it to be on this column...
