In the following query
SELECT Parent FROM Channels ORDER BY Parent ASC;
If I have a couple of (NULL)s in the field [Parent], they will be listed at
the bottom of the query result.
Is it because PostgreSQL considers (NULL) as the biggest value? If I run
the same query under MSSQL Server 2000, I get the exact opposite result
regarding the order of (NULL)s and (non-NULL) values. They are listed at
the very beginning of the query result.
If the order matters, you can order by IS NULL or IS NOT NULL.

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match
How do I write that?
Thanks
