It sounds as though you expect the setString(1,"new value") call to actually
re-submit the statement.  That's not what they are for, they PREPARE the
statement which you can choose to execute or not.  If you need to get a
bunch of rows using a prepared statement, you can do something like:

String value;
ResultSet res;
PreparedStatement stm = con.prepareStatement("select value from table where
number=?");
for(int i = 0;i < 5;i++) {
  stm.setInt(1,i);
  res = stm.executeQuery();
  while(res.next()) {
    value = res.getString(1);
  }
}
