if i have a bunch of numbers that i want to order like this in a drop dowm, how do i do it? the origional order by id was fine when the list was small.. but now it has grown. forcing it to look the way we want below is boggeling.. 1 101 101010 2 201 202 201010 201020 3 302 et.......
<cfquery name="get_PH" datasource="xxx"> SELECT hier_num, .hier_desc FROM hierarchy </cfquery> if i order by hier_num it just does as expected 1 2 3 101 201 301 et.... as always i appreciate your help. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:302657 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
