Hello, I have an order by question...
This is the "raw" data... mysql> SELECT events_groups_id, events_groups_name FROM events_groups; +------------------+---------------------+ | events_groups_id | events_groups_name | +------------------+---------------------+ | 1 | Personal Events | | 2 | Company events | | 3 | Deliveries in | | 4 | Invoices to pay | | 5 | Invoices to receive | | 6 | Deliveries out | | 9 | Online demos | +------------------+---------------------+ 7 rows in set (0.01 sec) This is almost the result I require: mysql> SELECT events_groups_id, events_groups_name FROM events_groups ORDER BY events_groups_name ASC; +------------------+---------------------+ | events_groups_id | events_groups_name | +------------------+---------------------+ | 2 | Company events | | 3 | Deliveries in | | 6 | Deliveries out | | 4 | Invoices to pay | | 5 | Invoices to receive | | 9 | Online demos | | 1 | Personal Events | +------------------+---------------------+ 7 rows in set (0.00 sec) I would like this to have Personal Events appear first, and the rest of the list still be alphabetically sorted like so: +------------------+---------------------+ | events_groups_id | events_groups_name | +------------------+---------------------+ | 1 | Personal Events | | 2 | Company events | | 3 | Deliveries in | | 6 | Deliveries out | | 4 | Invoices to pay | | 5 | Invoices to receive | | 9 | Online demos | +------------------+---------------------+ Is this possible without using a subquery or union?
