How to check whether data is inserted or not in Java

[Deo Sharma]

Hi,

I m trying to insert data in my Ms-access database using Java. Actually my data is inserted but how to check through code that whether data is inserted or not. What type of value is return by java insertion statement. I m not able to track this as it throw exception and every time my boolean value became false also when data is inserted because it throw exception even when my data got inserted. I want to return true when my data is inserted and want to return false when any exception is occur. Can you tell me which statement to use and how.

if you are using a prepared statement (which is highly recommended use prepared statements) the executeUpdate statement returns the number of rows inserted.

but if you are getting an exception i would worry about that first.
