How do I modify my manifest file in NetBeans?

Question

I'm very new to Java and a bit out of my element, but I have a Web Start Application/applet that I'm trying to change the manifest file on. I want to include the line Trusted-Library: true

I clicked over to the "Files" tab, double-clicked on "manifest.mf" in the "build" folder, and edited the file to include this. However, as soon as I run a "Clean & Build," the manifest file is apparently overwritten, as the line I added disappears right before my eyes.

How do I include this line? Thanks very much for any help!

I assume that you are using ant with netbeans to build your project, basically you need to modify build process to include manifest attribute you want in generated manifest
