Re: How to order by non database columns in forms?

Ouch !!!

There is a TSUNAMI of bad behavior in this newsgroup for quite sometime from a very few participants. I don't frequent this news group as much as I used to do.

The reply begs for lack of intuition, interpretation, inference and deduction of the question on the part of DA Morgan. That is what we are supposed to learn in college, and he is a college Instructor ? Dah ?

I perfectly understood your question and it does not require me to know the version of Oracle forms etc. Unfortunately, I do not have an answer right now. I tried that long time ago and I do not remember if I succeded or failed. If I recall, you can order only by database table columns and not even by :block_name.column_name, but I could be wrong.

Anyway, try your queries at
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jsp?forum=82 for forms questions.  There are other forums there too spanning different Oracle topics. You may have to become member of Oracle Technology Network, which is free. Employees who work for oracle and other participants will courteously answer your questions.
