• Call JTable.getModel then just loop through using TableModel.getValueAt

  From Matthew Flaschen

• Something like this will do the trick:

  void selectMatchingRows(JTable table, String regex) 
  {    
    for (int row = 0; row < table.getModel().getRowCount(); row++) 
    {
      for (int col = 0; col < table.getModel().getColumnCount(); col++) 
      {
        if (table.getModel().getValueAt(row, col).toString().matches(regex)) 
        {
          table.getSelectionModel().setSelectionInterval(row, row);
        }
      }
    }
  }
  

  Making sure the ListSelectionModel.selectionMode is MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION.
