Hi Benjamin,

I am using a very odd version of MySQL indeed ... SQL Server :)

Probably should have made that clearer before. Sorry.

hm sounds strange. Maybe you use a very old version of MySQL (3.23)? MySQL should allow expressions inside of ORDER BY clauses in Versions above 4.

Greetings,
Ben

I had some problems with Benjamin's solution (kept getting an error saying "Incorrect syntax near '>'."). I changed it to this (virtually the same) and it worked fine:

ORDER BY (cast(ProductStock as bit)) DESC

Ben, yours is a very nice and elegant solution.

I understood it when I saw it, that's why I said it makes sense, but I wouldn't have think of it myself, I guess (Perhaps now I would...)

I would be searching for a number, not a "boolean" for that field.
