Hi Detlev,
You are simply gr8..it worked...
below is the  code snippet  written by me:
      void submitResource(IResource resource){
               try {
                         //get the statemanagement service from the resource
                         IRepositoryServiceFactory factory = ResourceFactory.getInstance().getServiceFactory();
                         IStatemanagementManager statemanagement =
                         (IStatemanagementManager)factory.getRepositoryService(resource, IWcmConst.STATEMANAGEMENT_SERVICE);
                         IStatemanagementResource sResource =
                         statemanagement.getStatemangementResource(resource);
                         IResourceTransition transition = sResource.getTransition("lbl.submit");
                         //if everything is correct than transition is not null
                         if (transition != null) transition.execute();
               } catch (Exception e) {
     } //end of submitResource
