I want to query this... --> SELECT * FROM bbs ORDER BY ref desc, step ASC LIMIT 12; this query doesn't refer the index that made by this query. --> CREATE INDEX idx_bbs ON bbs (ref, step); but, i change the query that "ref desc" to "ref asc". then query refer the index, and i can see a result very fast. :-( so, i want to view an result that one column ordered by ascending, and oterh column ordered by descending using index. what do i do? how make an index? ================================================== ================================================== ¿ì¸® ÀÎÅͳÝ, Daum Æò»ý ¾²´Â ¹«·á E-mail ÁÖ¼Ò ÇѸÞÀÏ³Ý Áö±¸ÃÌ ÇÑ±Û °Ë»ö¼ºñ½º Daum FIREBALL http://www.daum.net
