Good but if I do System.out.println("ps: "+ps); I'm getting "ps: sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcPreparedStatement@13c5982"Right, that's the reference value of the Java object. Immaterial.
Does the query work now?
You realize, of course, that you have to call executeQuery() on the PreparedStatement and then get the results out of the ResultSet.
Maybe you need a JDBC tutorial to brush up on the basics. Google for "Sun JDBC tutorial".
