			FileOutputStream fStream = new FileOutputStream(SF);
			ObjectOutput stream = new ObjectOutputStream(fStream);

			//The below two command lines saves the table model and table column data
			//as an object using the user specified file name
			stream.writeObject(Table1.getModel());
			stream.writeObject(Table1.getColumnModel());
			stream.flush();
			stream.close();
			fStream.close();
		}

		catch (Exception e)
		{
			Label1.setText("A table saving error has occurred");
		}

	}

The only difference as you can see is that i am writing two objects instead of six and i don't really know what's wrong . I don't know if this is a bug in Java or am i missing something.

I am using JDK 1.4.2_04

I hope someone can help me with this problem

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thank You

Yours Sincerely

Richard West

If you get the exception when trying to write the font, it seems like the getFont() method in JTable somehow causes an attempt to repaint the user interface with incorrect settings.

It may be good to check out the official bug database and/or dive deep into the sourcecode for Swing and AWT.
