I am trying to create a form and have been having issues creating buttons to Print, Email w/attachments and Export to Excel. Anyone know where I can go for a tutorial or website that has the information?

Thanks

For mailing, check out the JavaMail API. Note that it is a pretty complex API. If you aren't comfortable with Swing, I wouldn't suggest trying to tackle emailing in Java.

For printing, check out these tutorials:

For exporting to Excel, you could use an API like JExcel. The easiest thing to do, imo, would be to write the contents to a CSV file. When Excel opens a CSV file, it parses it into the tabular format.

I'm assuming these were what you are asking about, and you are comfortable using ActionListeners. Also, in Java, IDE isn't a big deal. It doesn't matter if you are using NetBeans, Eclipse, etc., as they are all fancy editors. Just stay away from the Java visual GUI Builder.
