There’s a method in JComponent called scrollRectToVisible() which interacts with the parent scroll pane (if one exists) to change its viewport. It takes a Rectangle as an argument that specifies the area you want to be visible in the viewport.

So for example to scroll to a given row in a JTable you would use something like this:

table.scrollRectToVisible(
   new Rectangle(
      0, row * table.getRowHeight(),
      table.getWidth(), table.getRowHeight()));
