The method executeQuery() cannot take arguments on a PreparedStatement or CallableStatement. Error

Question

I am having this kind of error when trying to connect and retrieve data from my database.

The method executeQuery() cannot take arguments on a PreparedStatement or C

Answer 1

Just add { } for your querystring.i.e

String queryString = "{SELECT P_ID, lname, fname, mname FROM stu_info Where lname = ?}";

execute() and executeUpdate() will both work. executeQuery() only works when your procedure returns a result set.
