How can I retrieve values from a DB and load them into a JTable?

I'm trying to load values from a database and list them into a jtable. I have the statement executing properly, however when I load the application nothing appears in the table space, nor do I receive any error messages. Is there a statement missing? I haven't worked with jtable before. I've edited the original post to contain all of my code to bring into context

Improve this question
I am doing this payroll project for school.
The idea is for the user to input the employee's name, work hour, hourly rate, and select department from the ComboBox.
There will display 3 buttons, "Add More", "Display Result", and "exit".
"Add More" button will store the input into several arryalist and set the textfield to blank to allow more input.
"Display Result" will generate a JTable at the bottom JPanel to display the employee's name, department, and weekly salary.
I am running into the problem of nothing shows up after hitting the "Display Result" button. Maybe I have misunderstand the purpose of the button event, but I am really confused right now. Please help!
Here is a photobucket directURL PrtSc of the UI, hope it helps.

{

}
}
}
}

Let's start with...
if (e.getActionCommand() == "Add More") {
Is not how you compare Strings in Java, you need to use the equals method instead, something like...
if ("Add More".equals(e.getActionCommand())) {
for example
Next you do...
add(inputPanel);
add(buttonPanel);
add(outputPanel);
which, when using a BorderLayout, adds each of the components to the default position within the BorderLayout, you need to provide position constraints for each component, otherwise strange things begin to happen, for example...
add(inputPanel, BorderLayout.NORTH);
add(buttonPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
add(outputPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
I just realised that you're using a GridLayout, personally, I think you'll get a better result from BorderLayout, but that's me
And then you create a new instance of resultTable and outputPanel, but you never add outputPanel to anything...
/*Copy ArrayList into 2D array to display in JTable format*/
private void printData()
{
for(int i=0; i<name.size(); i++)
{
data[i][0]=name.get(i);
data[i][1]=department.get(i);
data[i][2]=salary.get(i);
}
resultTable = new JTable(data, columnNames);
outputPanel = new JPanel();
outputPanel.add(resultTable);
}
A better idea would be to create resultTable, wrap in a JScrollPane and add it to your screen.
When you want to "print" the data, create a new TableModel and apply it to the JTable
For example...
private void buildOutputPanel() {
outputPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
resultTable = new JTable();
outputPanel.add(new JScrollPane(resultTable));
}
/*Copy ArrayList into 2D array to display in JTable format*/
private void printData() {
for (int i = 0; i < name.size(); i++) {
data[i][0] = name.get(i);
data[i][2] = department.get(i);
data[i][2] = salary.get(i);
}
DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data, columnNames);
resultTable.setModel(model);
}

Thanks for #MadProgrammer 's help! His reply helps me to fix many problems I have, and really tried to explain things to me. After consulting with my instructor, I have successfully compile and run my program by editing the printData method.
private void printData()
{
DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(columnNames,name.size());
resultTable.setModel(model);
for(int i=0; i<name.size(); i++)
{
resultTable.setValueAt(name.get(i),i,0);
resultTable.setValueAt(department.get(i),i,1);
resultTable.setValueAt(salary.get(i),i,2);
}
}

Adding JList to show basic DB information

My goal is to put a JList with the data from my DB over the 2 JTextFields, but i dont know how to do it. Do you guys and girls know what the mistake is and how I can fix it?

Thank you and have a nice Day.

Well use DefaultListModel and its addElement() method in your while loop to add each result, like the following:
listModel = new DefaultListModel();
while (rs.next()) {
String vorname = rs.getString("Vorname");
String nachname = rs.getString("Nachname");
listModel.addElement(vorname + " " + nachname);
System.out.println(vorname + " " + nachname);
}
//then create a list with this model
list = new JList(listModel);

make search result appear in the same page (Swing program)

So, this is a program in swing for implementing a search functionality. It runs perfectly well. No problems there. My requirement is to make the search results appear beneath the same page. In this code, I have made the results to appear in a new Jframe that opens a new window. I basically don't want this. I want to make the search result appear in the same page.

Do not use Null layout. Use a BorderLayout.
All your search functionality should be in the center panel.
add(mySearchPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
Your results should be in the south panel. That way it will not shrink the center panel.
add(myResultsPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
If there is nothing in the south panel, then it will shrink away making it seem like it is not there.
So, going into a little more detail, your l0,l1, and b1 components should go into a panel (say myTopPanel), and be added to the center. Your scroll component should be added to the bottom panel.
setTitle("Search Executive Reports ");
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
myTopPanel.add(l0);
myTopPanel.add(l1);
myTopPanel.add(b1);
add(myTopPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER)
add(scroll, BorderLayout.CENTER)

JButton + radiobox + checkbox

I'd like this program I have to have some kind of "sum" button which will add in the column "Description" summarised information about the movie. Lets say I have "die hard" as a title, age 7 from radiobutton, and horror selected from the checkbox. Pressin the button would put "Die hard, 7, horror" under the column. I have no idea how to aproach this case.

You need to declare your variables either before you try to access them, or declare them global, which I did. I prefer this way.
Use .pack() on your frame to when you start the program, something actually shows.
Learn to use LayoutManagers for a better look.
Use arrays of RadioButtons and CheckBoxes so its easier to loop through them. I has to manually write a bunch of if statements, which would not be necessary if I could loop through them.
To get is a RadioButton or CheckBox is selected, use .isSelected()
.setVisible(true) after you add all your components.
Here's is your refactored code. I did nothing else to it, but fix the issue posted in your question. It now adds the info the desciption, when you hit the Add Film button.

Radio buttons and Check Buttons don't work like textfields. In a textfield, the useful values are picked up from the "text" member (example: getText()). A radioButton instead defines a set of fixed choices (well, you can make them dynamic, but it doesn't worth it, there are better components for that kind of work) like "yes" and "no". Usually, when you pickup some rabiobutton, you use the isChecked() method (returns boolean, it may be isChecked(), I don't remember) to react in one way or another. Example:
String age = 0;
if(sevenbutton.isSelected()){
age = 7;
}
Nonetheless, I think you can get the value from the text in the sevenbutton using getText(), but you're gonna need to check which radiobutton is checked anyway. A checkButton works in a pretty similar way, but for non-exclusive choices, so you need to use the isSelected() method, or similar, anyway.
Your method should look like:
private void addMovie(){
String age = "0";
String gender = "";
//Evaluate radioButtons
if(sevenbutton.isSelected()){
age = 7;
}
//Evaluate checkbuttons
if(Horror.isSelected()){
gender = gender+" horror";
}
String movie = film+" "+age+" "+gender;
//do anything else
}
