import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    Connection conn = getConnection();
    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();


    stmt.executeUpdate("create table survey (id int, name BINARY );");

    String sql = "INSERT INTO survey (name) VALUES(?)";
    PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(sql);

    // prepare text stream
    File file = new File("yourFileName.txt");
    int fileLength = (int) file.length();
    InputStream stream = (InputStream) new FileInputStream(file);

    pstmt.setString(1, "001");
    pstmt.setAsciiStream(2, stream, fileLength);

    // insert the data
    pstmt.executeUpdate();
    
    ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM survey");
    while (rs.next()) {
        System.out.print(new String(rs.getBytes(2)));
    }
    
    
    rs.close();
    stmt.close();
    conn.close();
  }

  private static Connection getConnection() throws Exception {
    Class.forName("org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver");
