What is the best way to build the following application.

I would like to create an application that when it opens it will have
300 rows and 15 columns.

The first 4 columns on the left side will be updated with
alphanumeric data but will always be displayed. They never
disappear.

The remaining 11 columns (also containing alphanumeric data) will
move to the left with the leftmost column (column 5) disappearing and
a brand new column 15 will appear on the right side of the window.
Column 15 never existed before.

Again, I want an application with 15 columns always displayed with
the 5th column leaving (data not saved) the application, columns 6
through 15 will move one column to the left, and the 15th column will
be populated with new data.

What's the best way to do this. Do you have example code for me.

Thank you,

Are these data entry fields? Or just to be displayed? Probably just
drawing the data on a JComponent would be the easiest and quickest but
would take a little more effort to create. JLabels are nice too.
