In previous posts, we have learned about types of JDBC drivers and the how to make database connection using JDBC and then how to execute SELECT Query. Let’s move forward. In this example I am picking up execution of SQL INSERT queries using JDBC.
SQL INSERT query are executed to push/store data stored in relational databases. It requires following steps:
1) Make a database connection
2) Execute the SQL INSERT Query
Pr-requisites include setting up a database schema and creating a table at least.
CREATE SCHEMA 'JDBCDemo' ; CREATE TABLE 'JDBCDemo'.'EMPLOYEE' ( 'ID' INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 , 'FIRST_NAME' VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL , 'LAST_NAME' VARCHAR(100) NULL , 'STAT_CD' TINYINT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 );
Let’s write above steps in code:
1) Make a database connection
Though we have already learned about it in making JDBC connection, lets recap with this simple code snippet.
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
connection = DriverManager
.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/JDBCDemo", "root", "password");
2) Execute the SQL INSERT Query
This is the main step and core part in ths post. It requires creating a Statement object and then using it’s execute() method.
Statement stmt = connection.createStatement();
stmt.execute("INSERT INTO EMPLOYEE (ID,FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME,STAT_CD) VALUES (1,'Lokesh','Gupta',5)");
Above statement will execute an insert statement in database we are connected to.
Let’s see the whole code in working.
package com.howtodoinjava.jdbc.demo;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.Statement;
public class InsertDataDemo {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connection connection = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try
{
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
connection = DriverManager
.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/JDBCDemo", "root", "password");
stmt = connection.createStatement();
stmt.execute("INSERT INTO EMPLOYEE (ID,FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME,STAT_CD) "
+ "VALUES (1,'Lokesh','Gupta',5)");
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}finally {
try {
stmt.close();
connection.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
That’s all in this post. Drop me a comment if something needs explanation.
Happy Leaning !!

What’s problem you are facing.. it’s long piece of code.. I will take time to go through it.
Ashish Cherian
thank you
I would like to refer to you for my class 12 project in the future…
if thats Ok with you that is …

Just an addon,
Difference between execute, executeQuery and executeUpdate :
execute: Returns true if the first object that the query returns is a ResultSet object. Use this method if the query could return one or more ResultSet objects. Retrieve the ResultSet objects returned from the query by repeatedly calling Statement.getResultSet.
executeQuery: Returns one ResultSet object.
executeUpdate: Returns an integer representing the number of rows affected by the SQL statement. Use this method if you are using INSERT, DELETE, or UPDATE SQL statements.
