I have a SQL statement written in Java. I don't have access to modify the statement, only to populate the values that it needs. If I don;t have a timestamp value to add, what can I set as a default so that I won't keep getting this error:

ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0

I tried stuff like '' and "". no Luck

Anthony,
If you are using a "PreparedStatement" (as Paul suggests), then I believe you need its "setNull()" method, for example:

Good Luck,
Avi.
