Problem in inserting data into Oracle database using JDBC
<p>I am trying to insert data using prepared statement in oracle 10g database but I am getting "SQL Exception:General Error" while executing the code given below. I think the problem is either with the DATE field or PASSWORD field data retrieval. Please Help me through this. Thanks.</p>

<p><strong>Student Table:-</strong></p>

<pre><code>                      Sid       VARCHAR2(200) PRIMARY KEY  CHECK(Sid&gt;0),

                      G_name    VARCHAR2(20)         ,

                      D_company VARCHAR2(20)         ,
