First of all, remove those horrible quotes around table and column names,
it is not an SQL standard. If MS SQL let you do this way, MS SQL should be
dropped outside the window :-P
The rest of the code is strange, it's meaningless to me. Why do you have
to put "Types.INTEGER" as a parameter? And what do you want at the third
parameter, a column?
