List:
I'm trying to run a retrofit of statspack on an 8.0.5 database.  (ya, I
know.  upgrading would actually be easier....)
The statspack stuff came from an 8.1.7 install I have on the same box.  

The spreport.sql report encounters errors in the "order by" clause.  The
problem is that you can't do an "order by" on a subquery before version
8.1.something-or-other

I know there's some kind of work around for this.  I had something to do
with a hint.  Even after 3 cups of coffee, I can't remember what it is.

Can anyone help?
Thanks!
Barb
