yes there is.  I've got a similar setup right now.  What I've done is
setup three Actions, one for each step, and I save information to a
temporary DB table.  This information could also be saved in the
session, or on each page.  Because of how I setup my DAO I actually have
an object per page ( this is much cleaner in the long run).  On the last
page the information is reviewed by the client and I have another action
that pulls the information out of wherever you put it, and stores it
into the "primary" table.
