jTable: Illegal forward reference

User_AYF65

Hi,
I have created a table using Netbeans. Then i have used properties->model option for table to insert row and to give column names using NetBeans frame work. Now i am trying to create an instance variable of DefaultTableModel in the application class:

DefaultTableModel model = (DefaultTableModel) figTable.getModel();

But i am getting following error:
"illegal forward reference": Move initializer to constructor.

Some body please guide me.
