Trying to send "SET IDENTITY_INSERT...ON"

[jim gemlo]

to a sqlserver data base using jsp and I get error:
Message: Server caught unhandled exception from servlet [JSP 1.1 Processor]: Unable to compile class for JSP "/osg/InsertTrys/delete/displayserver.jsp" /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/temp/default_host/default_app/osg/InsertTrys/delete/_displayserver_jsp_176.java:269: Method preparedStatement(java.lang.String) not found in interface java.sql.Connection. PreparedStatement stmtSetIdentityValueON = conn.preparedStatement(sqlSetValueIdentityOn);
Here is my code snip:
String sqlSetValueIdentityOn = "SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.BACKUP_DIM ON";
PreparedStatement stmtSetIdentityValueON = conn.preparedStatement(sqlSetValueIdentityOn);
what is the correct way to send this to the DB?
