I think you use something like:
<code>
...
PreparedStatement
ps = con.prepareStatement("insert into my_table (name, date)"
+" values (?,?)"
);
ps.setString(1,"My Name");
ps.setString(2,"2001-05-16 10:10:10");
ps.executeUpdate();
...
</code>
So, if my_table.date is of type DATE od DATETIME you must use setDate
or setTimestamp instead of setString. Look at the java.sql.*,
java.util.Date and java.util.GregorianCalendar javadoc.
Personally, I don't like date/time manipulation in Java - it's too
complicated for me.
