Thanks, I'll have to try that to see if it's faster.

Adding another column as someone else suggested is too complex in comparison
because it forces a bigger code change, and I don't really want that.
Changing one SELECT-statement is enough...

One thing you could do (not very neat IMHO) is to JOIN this query with a
table that contains membershiptype and a sortorder. Then you can ORDER BY
the sortorder of that table...
