I saw this suggestion on another question earlier: Use the read() method of JTextComponent.

    textArea.read(new FileReader(textFile), "here's a description of the file");

If you have a JTextArea, just call setText(String yourText) to populate it.

Also see the tutorial: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/textarea.html

This has nothing to do with Netbeans 7.0. In Java this is how you set text to a JTextArea:

jTextAreaInstance.setText("myText");
