JDBC/ODBC Error

Question

Hello,
I'm testing the following code that contects to an Access Database
import java.sql.*;
public class AccessTest
public static void main(String[] args)
try {
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
String dataSourceName = "scan";
String dbURL = "jdbc:odbc:" + dataSourceName;
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(dbURL, "","");
Statement s = con.createStatement
ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE,
ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
s.execute("select * from test");
ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet();
if (rs != null) // if rs == null, then there is no ResultSet to view
while ( rs.next() ) // this will step through our data row-by-row
/* the next line will get the first column in our current row's ResultSet
as a String ( getString( columnNumber) ) and output it to the screen */
// System.out.println(rs.getString("f_name")+"\t\t");
rs.updateString("l_name","Welcomer ");
rs.updateRow();
// System.out.println("Last Name: "+rs.getString(2));
System.out.println("Number: "+rs.getString(3));
System.out.println("Age: "+rs.getString(4));
//System.out.println("Date: "+rs.getDate(5));
//Date tmp = rs.getDate(5);
System.out.println();
s.close(); // close the Statement to let the database know we're done with it
con.close(); // close the Connection to let the database know we're done with it
catch (Exception err) {
System.out.println("ERROR: " + err);
the code that is commented out, was done so as I tried to debug this. What I'm trying to do is update the field l_name in a record. Yes I know using SQL update will do it, but I need to it this way for my application that I'm designing. The error I get is
java.sql.SQLException :[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Error in row.
the table in question only has 3 entries. The last name is updated for the first only, thus the error is coming up before the result set is moved by one. Please advise.
Thanks in advance

Instead of multi-posting, why don't you just post a link to your other one(s), like this:

Anyway, my guess is that maybe the MS Access driver doesn't allow updateable resultsets.
