Hi, I have a tricky little issue. Maybe someone can help me. I have a query that returns a grouped output. There are items that have mutiple dates and those dates have to be in order.
Kinda like this. item z datea dateb datec item r datee datef dateg so my query is like select item, date where itemid = date_itemid order by itemid, date And the output looks like this <cfoutput query="me" group="item"> #item# <cfoutput> #date# </cfoutput> </cfoutput> So, in order to keep the dates outputing right, I have to order them after the item in the sql order by. Now my problem is this: I have to have the item with the earliest date first. However, to keep the cfoutput group working, I have to have the date by as secondary to the item. I'm thinking I can do it by dumping it into an array of structures and then sorting the array of structures or something like that or perhaps writing a sp. This page will be hit a lot so I'm trying to keep it simple and fast. cfmx and sql2000. Any ideas??? Thanks in advance.
