I am hoping I can get an answer to my question. I want to sort a column in
ascending order, but I want null values to sort to the bottom. A simple
ORDER BY ColumnA ASC sorts the column in ascending order with null vales
appearing on top. The following code, however, works correctly, but I have
no idea why: ORDER BY ColumnA IS NULL ASC, ColumnA ASC. Can someone please
explain why? I also tried ORDER BY ColumnA IS NULL ASC and this code sorted
only the null values to the bottom of the remaining unsorted list, which I
do not understand. I guess what I am not understanding is why the result of
filtering within an ORDER BY clause appears at the bottom of my list.
