Ok,
I am setting up a small bidding system. I have a table with one column for
"BID" and the other for "MAX_BID" with each row having a unique id number.
Anyone have a simple query example where I can select ID, BID, MAX_BID and
sort in descending order the BID and MAX_BID as if it were one column?
Example_tbl
id bid max_bid
1 .2 .4
2 .1 .2
3 .4 .0
4 .4 .7
5 .7 .7
Selecting the id and creating X_BID in the query result which is the
combined bid columns, ordering by the BID and MAX_BID
Result_Set
ID X_BID
5 .7
4 .7
3 .4
1 .4
2 .2
Make any sense ? Any thoughts on the AS and ORDER BY for this ?
Thanks
