how to store .au files? plz help

[menwa ms]

hi ...
i have this application that has a text field(voice) in which you enter the path of the .au file and it will be added in the database, and i also have asearch button that will search for that .au file with the info related to it but i get the unicode of the path(.au file)when i do the search which i don't want .. i want to get the path itself because when i get the unicode i can't play the .au file.(the field in the database that stores the .au files is of type text)..what i mean by unicode is for example when i enter c:\java\flute.au i get 00EEFDCDDFCEE0DDC of the path )
can some one tell me where the error is?
how to correct the error?

if(e.getSource()==vadd)
{
if(vname.getText().equals("")|| vaddress.getText().equals("")
|| vphone.getText().equals("")|| vsex.getText
().equals("")|| vdob.getText().equals("")|| 
vtemplate.getText().equals("")|| vvoice.getText().equals(""))
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please fill in all the 
fields","Missing Fields",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
}//if
else
{
// save the new customer:
try
{
//1. take the customer's data:
int vuserId = Integer.parseInt(vid.getText());
String vuserName = vname.getText();
String vuserAddress = vaddress.getText();
String vuserPhone = vphone.getText();
String vuserSex = vsex.getText();
String vuserDateBirth = vdob.getText();
String vuserTemplate = vtemplate.getText();
String vuserVoice=vvoice.getText();
File file = new File(vuserVoice);
int fileLength = (int)file.length();
if(fileLength > 0)
{
fis = new FileInputStream(file);
String query = " INSERT INTO voice VALUES
('"+vuserId+"', '"+vuserName+"', '"+vuserAddress+"', '"+vuserPhone+"', '"+
vuserSex+"', '"+vuserDateBirth+"', '"+vuserTemplate+"', ? ) ";
PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(query);
pstmt.setBinaryStream(1, fis, fileLength);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
}
else
{
String query = " INSERT INTO voice VALUES
('"+vuserId+"', '"+vuserName+"', '"+vuserAddress+"', '"+vuserPhone+"', '"+
vuserSex+"', '"+vuserDateBirth+"', '"+vuserTemplate+"',?) ";
stat.executeUpdate(query);
}

/*String query = " INSERT INTO voice VALUES
('"+vuserId+"', '"+vuserName+"', '"+vuserAddress+"', '"+vuserPhone+"', '"+
vuserSex+"', '"+vuserDateBirth+"', '"+vuserTemplate+"', '"+vuserVoice+"') ";
stat.executeUpdate(query);*/
vupdateTable();
} //try
catch (Exception ev)
{
System.out.println("Caught exception in add action: " + ev);
} //catch
}//else
}//else 
and this is the code for the search:
if(e.getSource() == vsearch)
{
try
{
String vuserId = vid.getText();
ResultSet adresults = stat.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM voice WHERE id 
= '"+vuserId+"' ");
if(adresults.next())
{
vname.setText(adresults.getString(2).trim());
vaddress.setText(adresults.getString(3).trim());
vphone.setText(adresults.getString(4).trim());
vsex.setText(adresults.getString(5).trim());
vdob.setText(adresults.getString(6).trim());
vtemplate.setText(adresults.getString(7).trim());
vvoice.setText(adresults.getString(8).trim());
}//if
}//try
catch(Exception vs)
{
System.out.println("Caught vdsearch exception: "+vs);
}//catch
}//adsearch

Please don't post duplicate messages. If you post a question, and nobody answers it, it's likely that nobody understood the question. You can post followup messages in the same thread.
So in any event, this is a whole bunch of ugly code. I have no idea how .au files enter into it, nor do I have any idea what you mean by "I get the Unicode". Maybe you could post less code, and more, and clearer, explanation of what's going wrong?

This is a duplicate of this thread. I'm closing this thread. Please respond in the other one.
