Hi Morten,
I think this is valid in MySQL (it certainly is for SQL Server) but you
can use a CASE statement directly in the ORDER BY clause. Try something
like this:
SELECT name
FROM foo
WHERE bar = 34
OR baz > 100
ORDER BY CASE bar WHEN 34 THEN 0 ELSE 1 END ASC, baz DESC
LIMIT 5;

Hi, I'm retrieving the name of some records where either one of two
criteria are satisfied:
SELECT name
FROM foo
WHERE bar = 34
OR baz > 100
ORDER BY baz DESC
LIMIT 5;
I would like to sort that result set, such that the records matching
bar = 34 occur before records with baz > 100.
