You wrote a pivot query without using pivot. BTW, the aggregate for the pivot

I actually prefer to do this in the ORDER BY clause (keeping the ordering
logic in the ORDER BY instead of in the SELECT) but the end result is the
same. If you won't or can't add a sort column to the table, a CASE statement
is about the only other way to do this in the query itself.

Well actually you can do in pure SQL. SQL has code that can be used to create
dynamic columns and values on the fly in your record set and then one can order
on this set. It sort of depends on whether the desire order is permanent or

Do you mean put them in a predifind order based on the college, other
than alphabetical?
If so, and if you have a lookup table for your colleges, you will have
to add a numerical column called 'Ordinal
Yes, you can do this using case statements in your order by:
example:
select * from viewoffers where [EMAIL PROTECTED]
order by
case status
when 'active' then 1
when 'rejected' then 2
else 99

Of course, this is really a kludge. The DB should be deisgned a little
better, but

If I understand your question

If so, and if you have a lookup table for your colleges, you will have to

How about something like this:

WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM v_sae_jna_mr WHERE recid=F.recordthread)
Not sure it'll be much faster, but it's worth a try.

Well.. oneway to do it is to create a new relationship table.. i.e
tblRelatedTrails
relationID
trailID
relatedTrailID
and when doing a select for review you can do a sub select on the
relatedTrails table.. and use IN()
anotherway is to use the geo info of the trails.. and
