> SELECT * FROM EventList ORDER BY 'EventDate', 'EventOrder' LIMIT 50; I'm surprised you happened to get anything in order. Maybe the message got simplified by the list manager, but did you really mean to order by a constant string?
Why not: SELECT * FROM EventList ORDER BY `EventDate`, `EventOrder` LIMIT 50; Or better: SELECT * FROM EventList ORDER BY EventDate, EventOrder LIMIT 50; This wasn't the query you had the issue with, but it is easier to quote. ;) Same theory applies. Discard this if the list manager had mangled your post. -steve- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
