Programmatically selecting Next in NetBeans Wizard

After searching for quite a while for a way to programmatically select Next step in a wizard (if for some reason using the ordinary Next button is not enough), I found this (at http://forums.netbeans.org/ptopic23811.html):

yourWizardVisualPanel.getRootPane().getDefaultButton().doClick()

A place to call home

I'm currently working (in Näsviken, Sweden) on a NetBeans Platform based project. The goal is to produce a business application (bookkeeping, invoice sending, and so on) that can be run both as a stand-alone and remotely connected application. We're using hibernate based JPA for our persistence needs and use alternatively Apache Derby and MySQL for database.

My idea for this blog is to try to collect and share any findings regarding all aspects of this development as it proceeds. Sometimes I can feel that easily available documentation for the NetBeans Platform is lacking and possibly this will be my little contribution...
