Button to link to MySQL?

Question

I am a Java beginner.
I am writing a program for recording customers' payment.
I would like to a button on a GUI for me to click to add a record. For example, I can add a record of $100 to MySQL simply by clicking this button. Whenever the customer pays, I can click it to add the record.
What code should I write? Are there any recommended books for me to refer to?
Many thanks for great help in advance.

Answer 1

I have consulted my books and Google.
Should anything be missing here?
ButtonHandler handler = new ButtonHandler();]
paymentButton.addActionListener( handler );
class ButtonHandler implements ActionListener
void actionPerformed (Action Event event)
// MySQL stuff here;
// assume that I have specified the data types
statement.executeQuery(
         "INSERT into paymentTable (customerIDColumn, paymentAmountColumn....)
values (1, 100...);" );
}
