The interface I have made for adding records is probably not idea, I have a input type = text html field, if I leave it blank, NULL does not get inserted, rather a 0 does. I have the default set to '9' now. I would have to make alterations to my admin interface to allow NULL to be input on new record creation. I don't really want to do this. Is there any way to have a ASC sort order that sends 0 to the end, and sorts on 1-9? I know a strange request, but this would be simplest in my case. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 http://www.newgeo.com Fax: 313.557.5052 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novato, CA U.S.A. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
