BeanUtils is a Booch utility (guess who just read that in a book ;) aka 
static utility class. BeanUtils.setProperty is public and static, and has 
been for as long as i can remember. so i'd say that the clever money's on 
this being a NetBean's problem.

if you want to be sure, then i'd suggest that you find the version of 
BeanUtils that you're using and examine the code itself. look for the 
release tag in:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-
commons/beanutils/src/java/org/apache/commons/beanutils/BeanUtils.java

BTW please remember to prefix with the name of the component (in this case 
[beanutils]) in future posts.
