Hey Mike, Sounds like you would be better of with an ENUM of integers, e.g. ENUM(-1,1,2,3) where -1 stands for to be started, 1 for started and so on. To answer your question: ORDER BY `status` = 'to be started', `status` = 'started', `status` = 'finished', `status` = 'canceled' Mike van

problems with replication when db is changed

You might try issueing a FLUSH PRIVILEGES command instead of restarting. This is supposed to be implicit when you use the GRANT statement. If you do a direct insert into the user table you have to issue this command. - Original Message - From: Lopez, Denise [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:
