Thread: load from text into JTable

hello everyone,
i am creating a program to help a friend handle his client dataBase (is not very big)
and i couldn't find a proper way to load file content into a JTable (or even a simple array)
what am asking maybe an algorithm problem more than a java problem,
let's say this is the content of my text file

*

#name# client1
#price# 50.00
#date# 30/05/2013

*

#name# client2
#price# 70.00
#date# 05/06/2013

*
#name# client3
#price# 20.00
#date# 30/05/2013

i figured how to define the table size, colomn is already known and rows is how many stars do i have in that text, what i can't do is how to fill the table ?
i know it must be an easy solution for this (am sure there is more than once) and it's 4.30am here now am really dead now
soooo can you please help

thank you

Swing's JTable implements MVC pattern. That is, all the manipulations with data must be done from the model. You can get a model of a table using a getter.
