The default behavious of JTable is such that all the columns will fit within the table. Even if the user resizes a column, the width of the other columns will adjust so that all the columns continue to fit within the table.

This default behaviour can be changed by calling the function

table.setAutoResizeMode( JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF );

Check the documentation for other settings.

Once you've set the resize mode to AUTO_RESIZE_OFF and you widen a column, the horizontal scrollbar will automatically appear (if you are using a JScrollPane).
