Here is my code for a JDBC program to do account transfer. I am having trouble with my transfer code. Can anyone help. This is urgent.

import java.sql.*; 

/*****************************************************

class BankAccountTransfer { 
  

  /** Make a transfer from two accounts owned by same customer.
   * @param custNum the 6-digit customer number
   * @param custPasswd the customer's password
   * @param acctNumFrom the 8-digit acct# to transfer from; owned by custNum
   * @param acctNumTo   the 8-digit acct# to transfer to;   owned by custNum
   * @param amt The amount to transfer.
   * @return a string with a user-friendly result.  
   *   The string starts with "ERROR" iff the transfer didn't go through.
   */

        return errMsgStart + "No such customer number " + custNum;
        }
      // If we make it here, 'passwdResults' is pointing at the first (only) customer record.
      if (! custPasswd.equals( passwdResults.getString("password") )) {
        return errMsgStart + "Incorrect password";
        }

      // to this method really do match what is off in the database.
      conn.setAutoCommit(false);

      // Print an error message and return if:
      //  - either the 'from' or 'to' account doesn't exist w/ expected owner
