I dont want these data values FIRSTNAMES,TOWNS,ROADS2,ROADS1,SURNAMES inside the program rather i want to connect it to mysql table. How to do that anyone help me.

Answer 1

You can take a look at this introductory tutorial.

There are tons of tutorials online as well regarding connecting Java applications and MySQL.

On the other hand, if you want to go that extra step forward, you might want to take a look at ORM Tools like Hibernate. It basically allows your Java application to connect to a database (just like JDBC). The advantage of such framework tough is that it allows you to change the Database you are using without having to make drastic changes to your application. Not to mention that it automatically maps data stored inside the database to objects and the other way round.
