In a table called Steps, I have the following fields:
ID, B4Me, Dsc,
-ID field contains a unique ID for each record
-B4Me contains the ID of some other record in the table that MUST appear in a
result set, BEFORE this record. B4Me may be null. This is called the B4Me
order.
-Records will be
B4ME+1 END, other_fields
FROM
STEPS
ORDER BY 1 ASC, 2 ASC
