Ralf:

The data has nulls in it. For example, one grid is equivalent to a 
checking account, with deposits and checks. The column for the check 
number is null for deposits. Another table has three different phone 
number fields, not everybody has three phone numbers. Another table 
has employee termination date, current employees have none.

As you can see it is a ubiquitous problem and this is in a small part 
of the application.

I could cause the queries to replace nulls with some reasonable data 
for sorting, but it wouldn't look right to the user.
