JTree traversal with key events

Question

I am looking for any classes available for traversing nodes in Jtree based on the input given through keyboard matching with nearest name in the tree being displayed. This is similar to the feature we have in windows explorer where based on the name we type it selects the nearest node in the tree taking into consideration the expanded paths.
Thank you in anticipation,

What exactly you want to do.
Have a look at my code, this is what I did a while ago. This may a good start for you.
tree.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyAdapter() {
         public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
            tree_KeyReleased(e);
    * JTree Key Released Functionality
    * @param e KeyEvent
   private void tree_KeyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
      try {
      MouseEvent me = new MouseEvent(tree, MouseEvent.MOUSE_RELEASED, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, false);
      int keyCode = e.getKeyCode();
      // Get the Tree Path
      TreePath selPath = tree.getSelectionPath();
      if (keyCode == e.VK_DELETE) { //KeyCode - 127
         removeSelectedNode();
      else if (keyCode == e.VK_ADD) { // Key Code - 107
         tree.expandPath(selPath);
      else if (keyCode == e.VK_SUBTRACT) { // Key Code 109
         tree.collapsePath(selPath);
      else if (keyCode == e.VK_ENTER) {
         tree_mouseReleased(me);
      else {
      } catch (NullPointerException ex) {
      //System.out.println("Null");
   }
