Hi,   this is simple - but i do not know how many values you have if this is small count then   select Fields FROM TABLE_NAME ORDER BY CASE WHEN ID=1032 THEN 1 WHEN ID=624 THEN 2 WHEN ID=2841 THEN 3 END   and if this is big numer then add better temp table with order values   regards, Karol Bienias
