Hi to all,

executing an INSERT INTO like this:

           INSERT INTO "_Tests_Steps"
           (
                  "New_Test_Step_Id",
                  "Test_Step_Id",
                  "Process_Test_Id",
                  "Step_Id",
                  "Sequence_Id",
                  "StepGroup_Id",
                  "Skip"
           )
           SELECT
                  nextval('"Tests_Steps_Test_Step_Id_seq"'),
                  "Test_Step_Id",
                  B."Process_Test_Id",
                  "Step_Id",
                  "Sequence_Id",
                  "StepGroup_Id",
                  A."Skip"
           FROM "_Processes_Tests" B INNER JOIN "Tests_Steps" A
           ON A."Process_Test_Id" = B."Process_Test_Id"
           WHERE "Version_Id" = vers_id
           ORDER BY "Test_Step_Id";
...............
where "_Tests_Steps" and "_Processes_Tests" are both temporary tables, in the resulting "_Tests_Steps table records are not sorted in the expected mode. In other word, I need to extract records from "Tests_Steps" and then put them in "_Tests_Steps" ordered exactly as they were inserted first time. This because I need to duplicate this records, assigning them a new serial value. This records are later binding to others records of different tables.

The resulting recordset is the follow:

"New_Test_Step_Id", "Test_Step_Id", "Process_Test_Id", "Step_Id", "Sequence_Id", "StepGroup_Id", "Skip" 2332; 2136; 2225; 958; 404; 363; f 2331; 2137; 2225; 959; 404; 363; f 2334; 2285; 2225; 960; 404; 363; f 2333; 2286; 2225; 961; 404; 363; f


Apparently, new records are not inserted in the table according to the order selected by "Test_Step_Id" field;

Any suggest??

Thanks in advance
