I'm wondering how I would turn three different queries:
SELECT * FROM team WHERE office = 'Exec'
SELECT * FROM team WHERE office = 'VP'
SELECT * FROM team WHERE office = 'Dir'
Into one query with the sort order of office = 'Exec', 'VP', 'Dir'...
Thanks,
order by right(office,1)
or make an extra column for ordering
Or be really smart :)
SELECT * FROM team ORDER BY office='Exec' DESC,office='VP'
DESC,office='Dir' DESC;
Not many people know that you can order by literals as well ;)
Cheers,
Mark
