I have a table that contains numerous fields among which are<BR> grp_name and subseq in the following order: grp_name subseq input 1 cables 2 education 3 cables 4 education 5 cables 6 input 7 The problem I'm having is that the resulting cursor from the select <BR>must be ordered by grp_name (not alpahbetically but in the order they <BR>appear) and then by subseq in order ie: grp_name subseq input 1 input 7 cables 2 cables 4 cables 6 education 3 education 5 I have tried various combinations of Group By and Order By to no <BR>avail. Any ideas?
