Answer 1

Test the query independently i.e on database command line to make sure if error is in database environment,if it works fine
else i guess problem would be

Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:ServerDB","","");

i never worked with MSSQL but in any database u gotta specify username and password which u left alone
Every thing in your code is just fine i guess problem is in connectivity!

Revise your connectivity code or reinstall driver
