First of all you need to detect the enter stroke this can be done ith either
the keypressed event of the textboxes or with the actionperformed event. In
that event you can then have the code move the cursor to the next textfield.
Use the requestFocus method for this.

Out of the api from JComponent :
requestFocus
public void requestFocus()
  Sets focus on the receiving component if isRequestFocusEnabled returns
true and the component doesn't already have focus.
Hope this can solve your first problem.
