Help with an sql statement

Question

String Queue = jComboBox3.getSelectedItem().toString();
String Start_Date = jComboBox2.getSelectedItem().toString();
String End_Date = jComboBox1.getSelectedItem().toString();
int bins []= new int [size];
String sql = "SELECT Count(Accepts.Queue)FROM Accepts WHERE Accepts.Queue = 'Queue' And (Accepts.TimeOfAccept Between 'Start_Date' And 'End_Date');";
ResultSet result = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
if (result.next())
int res = result.getInt(1);
for (int k = size; k<0; k--)
for (int i = 0; i<res+1; i++)
bins[i] = res% k;
Im trying to get information from a table using an sql statement i have converted the items selected in combo boxes into strings and am using these strings in the sql statement but it is still wrong can anyone help me

. . . WHERE Accepts.Queue = 'Queue' And (Accepts.TimeOfAccept Between 'Start_Date' And 'End_Date')As others have mentioned, it looks like you have a data type mis-match.
Try:
. . . . . Accepts.TimeOfAccept Between TO_DATE(Start_Date) AND TO_DATE(End_Date)
This assumes that the two DATE variables - Start_Date and End_Date - are in standard format - DD-MON-YY.
If not, you will need to supply a format model as a second argument to the TO_DATE functions:
TO_DATE(character_string , format_model)
i.e.
. . . . . BETWEEN TO_DATE(Start_Date,'MM/DD/YY') AND TO_DATE(End_Date,'MM/DD/YY')
Hope this helps.
