Hi. I have a table that contains an association of multi-valued columns. I'm
issuing a SELECT against the table and referencing the columns. If I don't ORDER
BY on any of the columns, the query returns data quickly (either executing from
within a uv basic program and capturing output or via uniObjects command).
However, as soon as I include an ORDER BY, the run-time of the query increases
substantially. We're talking seconds vs. minutes. Why? Is it because of the
multi-valued output data being shuffled to display correctly? Kind of like how
WHEN with a BY-EXP works? The query is simple:

SELECT FIELD1, FIELD2, FIELD3, FIELD4 FROM TABLE_THE.ASSOC WHERE FIELD3 >=
'01/01/2010' ORDER BY FIELD1,FIELD2,FIELD3,FIELD4;

THE.ASSOC:
0001 PH
0002 FIELD1 FIELD2 FIELD3 FIELD4

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
