Hi Regina,

I followed those guides too but the sentence "The OpenOffice.org Scripting module has been tested 
with NetBeans 3.4." got me thinking that it may not be wise to use something that's "apparently" 
not updated (I have netbeans 7.3). I'm not saying it's outdated so I may give it a try tomorrow.

Anyway, I then found another guide and I believe it explains the netbeans part a little more deeply 
and doesn't really require a module (the only thing I have to do manually is prepare the xml 
descriptor and copy the jar files to the LO script dir):
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Scripting_in_Java_with_NetBeans_IDE
The part that I was doing wrong was related to point "10" in that guide. I wasn't placing my 
classes within "default package".

Surely I read other articles here and there but with these two it should be enough.
