Welcome to NetBeans. I would recommend you subscribe to the NetBeans
User list, rather than write this list on this particular question - as
this list is more dedicated to questions and problems with the
components themselves, as opposed to how to program them.

To more answer your question, here are a few handy links:
http://www.javapassion.com/netbeans/masterindex.html
    (Sang Shin's Master Index to anything NetBeans).
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/kb.html
    (repository for articles about NetBeans IDE that supplements the
standard documentation set)
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/web/databoundcomponents.html
    (Using databound components to access a database)
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/web/tutorial-webapps.html
    (NetBeans IDE Tutorial for Web Applications)
http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/index.html
    (NetBeans IDE 6.0 Documentation)

These should answer your questions, and more.. Best!
