Select name, sire1,  ;
		STRTRAN(    STRTRAN(     STRTRAN( ;
			CHRTRAN(grade, "ABC ", "246 "), ;
		"2+", "1"), "4+", "3"), "6+", "5")  As GradeOrder ;
        ...
>Hello All,

>I'm trying to use a case when in this select to order classifications. The grades available, in order of importance are A+,A,B+,B,C+,C.
>
>I want to create a select that will translate these so a report can be ordered by importance.

>Select name, sire1, case when grade = "A+" then "1", grade = "A" then "2", grade = "B+" then "3" end as gradeorder from master where grade <> " " order by name
