      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.4.2"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2-b28)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2-b28, mixed mode)

      FULL OS VERSION :
      Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195]

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      When clicking a cell in a JTable in 1.4.1, a yellow border was painted around the cell to indicate that it was selected. This no longer happens in 1.4.2, and as a result the user has no visual indicator that a cell has been selected. This bug only occurs with the Windows L&F - JTable works fine with Metal and Motif.

      Bug 4674205 reports that removal of the yellow border was a fix for the Windows L&F, and that a dashed rectangle will replace it. However no dashed rectangle appears.

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      Run the attached program.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      I expect to see a dashed border around a table cell when I click on it.
      ACTUAL -
      I don't see any change in the table when clicking cells.

      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.

      ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
      import java.awt.*;
      import javax.swing.*;

      public class TestJTable
      {
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
          try
          {
            UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");
          }
          catch (Exception e)
          {
            e.printStackTrace();
          }

          JTable table = new JTable(4, 1);
          JFrame frame = new JFrame();
          frame.getContentPane().add(table, BorderLayout.CENTER);
          frame.pack();
          frame.setVisible(true);
        }
      }
