 InputMap im = new FilteringInputMap(dbTable.getTable().getInputMap(WHEN_FOCUSED), keys);

 dbTable.getTable().setInputMap(WHEN_FOCUSED, im);

 

 im = new FilteringInputMap(dbTable.getTable().getInputMap(WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT), keys);

 dbTable.getTable().setInputMap(WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT, im);

And here is the new InputMap class:

import javax.swing.InputMap;

import javax.swing.KeyStroke;

 

/**

 * An input map used by components that extend swing components that bind

 * keystrokes to unwanted actions (Such as ESCAPE, ENTER or F2 in a JTable that

 * does not do any editing). For the named keystrokes it return null for the

 * binding and so Swing will look outside this component for a binding.
