access thread: Sorting in SQL


Message #1 by "Henry Napier" <hdh.napier@c...> on Tue, 17 Jul 2001 01:17:07
What critieria are needed to sort only the 4th and 5th digit,

ignoring first three.

eg. 03.74-01.78  (would like to sort ONLY 74)

Can anyone help please?

In the query, create a separate field that is mid(textstring,4,2) where 

textstring = 03.74-01.78

It doesn't have to be displayed but you can still sort on it.
