You can use the valueOf method of java.sql.Time to convert a String into a java.sql.Time, and use the valueOf method of java.sql.Date to convert a String into a java.sql.Date

Look at SimpleDateFormat class. Here's a tutorial.

You'll need something like this:

String datetimeString;
Date result;
SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE d MMM yy hh:mm:ss");
result = formatter.parse (datetimeString);
