You are storing the data in your table as character data not numeric...

Subject: Silly question from a novice


This is probably the most lame question:

When you do an ORDER BY in a query with a variable that will display
numbers, of course it lists all the numbers like this:

1
12
20
6
70
9

Instead of 1, 6, 9, 12, 20, 70   Why does it do that? And how can I get it
to order them correctly?

Thanks!
