Re: Selecting my data first
It looks like you can use multiple order by's... SELECT * FROM files ORDER BY owner_id, file_id or something like that... The documentation is really good :) On May 12, 2008, at 2:36 PM, Jake Conk wrote: Hello, I have a table with 2 columns, file_id and owner_id.

This is what I'm trying to accomplish: SELECT * FROM whiles WHERE owner_id=my_id first THEN SELECT * FROM files ORDER by file_id I would suspect this can be accomplished by a sub query somehow but I don't know how.

Re: Selecting my data first
I would do something along these lines: SELECT file_id, owner_id, (owner_id = my_id) as 'mine' FROM whiles WHERE blah blah ORDER BY mine, file_id Jake Conk wrote: Hello, I have a table with 2 columns, file_id and owner_id.
