It appears that NetBeans is running your project on the JRuby platform,  
which doesn’t include a win32ole library.

Right-click on the project icon and select Properties. In the Project  
Properties window, click on Run and switch the Ruby Platform from JRuby  
to your standard Ruby install.

FWIW, a win32ole library is in development and should be in JRuby for  
1.6.

Nice! Is there an early version that I can play with and what would be a  
trend date (just a guidance would do) for JRuby 1.6 release ?

you could also check:  
[http://kenai.com/projects/jwin32ole](http://kenai.com/projects/jwin32ole)

It does the basic automation.
