How can I go about ordering the following query by first name?
<cfquery name="emp" datasource="#dsn#">
SELECT DISTINCT(t.employeeid),
e.firstname + e.lastname AS name
FROM transactions t
LEFT JOIN employees e ON t.employeeid = e.employeeid
</cfquery>
The following query throws an error about a conflict between the ORDER BY and
DISTINCT.
<cfquery name="emp" datasource="#dsn#">
SELECT DISTINCT(t.employeeid),
e.firstname + e.lastname AS name
FROM transactions t
LEFT JOIN employees e ON t.employeeid = e.employeeid
ORDER BY e.firstname
</cfquery>
Thanks,
Jim
