Search Method

Question

Dear all,
I am working in ADF 10g (I have a problem when I am creating Search method).
I need to make search by using LOV (create 2 LOV list one for month and one for Year)
In my DB I have the the date in one column (19-Feb-2009)
I make two view object one for month and I use this statement:
SELECT Distinct TO_CHAR(A_DATE,'Month'),EXTRACT(Month from A_DATE)
from Attendances
order by EXTRACT(Month from A_DATE) ASC
Because I need to extract the month from the date column(EXTRACT(Month from A_DATE) as a text(TO_CHAR(A_DATE,'Month') and distinct( Distinct TO_CHAR(A_DATE,'Month').
for the year I used this statement:
Select Distinct EXTRACT(YEAR from A_DATE)
from Attendances
order by EXTRACT(YEAR from A_DATE) ASC
in the Application Data Module I got this:
In the Date:
TOCharADateMonth
ExtractMonthfromDate
In the year
ExtractYearfromDate
The Method I used:
public void SearchYear(String Year, String Month) {
ArchiveVOImpl view = getArchiveVO1(); // To get Archive view
ViewCriteria vc = view.createViewCriteria(); //
ViewCriteriaRow vcr = vc.createViewCriteriaRow();
ViewCriteriaRow mon = vc.createViewCriteriaRow();
if (Year != null || Month != null) {
vcr.setAttribute("ADate", Year);
mon.setAttribute("ADate", Month);
vcr.setUpperColumns(true);
mon.setUpperColumns(true);
vc.add(vcr);
vc.add(mon);
view.applyViewCriteria(vc);
view.executeQuery();
I have the error from Date format
I need the help in this, cause this is first time to me to use ADF.

Answer 1

Where should I use this
view.setWhereClause("WHERE TO_CHAR(ADATE,'YYYY') = '" + Year + "'");
could you explain to me?
Did I need to change any statements?
