Hello,
I have a list of id's that I need to sort and fetch.
eg; 1,3,6,5,4,3,4,5,6,7,5,4,2
Select id
>From table
Order By id Asc;
it becomes like: 1,2,3,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,6,6,7
What can I add to the above sql statement so that is fetches the
specified id first in a sorted list?
eg: if $specified_id=5;
I want: 5,5,5,1,2,3,3,4,4,4,6,6,7
I could have done it in two different sql statements where one fetches
specified_id and the other fetches and sorts others, but I want to be
able to do it in one sql statement to reduce time.
Any ideas? Thank you!
- Bernie
