Hi all,
I have been using mysql since long time. But suddenly I noticed that, there is no function for sorting intervalues from the tabel. Clarifying more.... If I have a set of employee numbers and i need to sort them in descending order, I found that it gives erroneous results. The query is: select personal_id from Emp_table order by personal_id DESC Am I missing something or do i need to write the query differently? Please help.
