A popup menu in Qt is called a context menu.

Implement the context menu events and signals.

QTableWidgetItem * itemAt ( const QPoint & point ) const

void MyTableWidget::contextMenuEvent( QContextMenuEvent * e )
{
        QAction *pAddAction = new QAction("Add",this);
        connect(pAddAction,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,(slotAdd()));
        QAction *pRemoveAction = new QAction("Remove",this);
        connect(pRemoveAction ,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,(slotRemove()));
        QAction *pUpdateAction = new QAction("Update",this);
        connect(pUpdateAction ,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,(slotUpdate()));
        //
        QMenu *pContextMenu = new QMenu( this);
	pContextMenu->addAction(pAddAction);
	pContextMenu->addAction(pRemoveAction );
	pContextMenu->addAction(pUpdateAction );
        //
        pContextMenu->exec( e->globalPos() );
 
        delete pContextMenu;
        pContextMenu = NULL;
}

void MyTableWidget::contextMenuEvent( QContextMenuEvent * e )
{
        QAction *pAddAction = new QAction("Add",this);
        connect(pAddAction,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,(slotAdd()));
        QAction *pRemoveAction = new QAction("Remove",this);
        connect(pRemoveAction ,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,(slotRemove()));
        QAction *pUpdateAction = new QAction("Update",this);
        connect(pUpdateAction ,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,(slotUpdate()));
        //
        QMenu *pContextMenu = new QMenu( this);
	pContextMenu->addAction(pAddAction);
	pContextMenu->addAction(pRemoveAction );
	pContextMenu->addAction(pUpdateAction );
        //
        pContextMenu->exec( e->globalPos() );

        delete pContextMenu;
        pContextMenu = NULL;
}

Thank you very much for your valuable reply.....My problem is solved now with some of your help and some of mine coding.I am pasting the code also so that it can help others also...

First create a signal and slot in main program like this

connect(ui->tableWidget,SIGNAL(customContextMenuRequested(con st QPoint &)),this,SLOT(ProvideContextMenu(const QPoint &)));

and then just create the slots functions for them like this....

void MainWindow::ProvideContextMenu(const QPoint &pos)
{

item = ui->tableWidget->itemAt(pos);
// QPoint globalPos = ui->tableWidget->mapToGlobal(pos);
QAction *pAddAction = new QAction("Add",ui->tableWidget);
connect(pAddAction,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,SLOT(n ewRow()));
QAction *pRemoveAction = new QAction("Remove",ui->tableWidget);
connect(pRemoveAction ,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,SLOT(deleteRow()));
QAction *pUpdateAction = new QAction("Update",ui->tableWidget);
//connect(pUpdateAction ,SIGNAL(triggered()),this,SLOT(Update()));
QMenu *pContextMenu = new QMenu( this);
pContextMenu->addAction(pAddAction);
pContextMenu->addAction(pRemoveAction );
pContextMenu->addAction(pUpdateAction );
pContextMenu->exec( mapToGlobal(pos) );
delete pContextMenu;
pContextMenu = NULL;
}

void MainWindow::newRow()
{
int row = ui->tableWidget->rowCount();
ui->tableWidget->insertRow(row);
}

void MainWindow::deleteRow()
{
int row = ui->tableWidget->row(item);
ui->tableWidget->removeRow(row);
}


Do not forget to declare them in .h file or wherever you want....
