Before someone jumps on my last post, if you create a view don't bother with the order by. That needs to be specified when selecting from the view.

create view view1
as select field1 from tableA union all select field2 from tableB;

select field1 from view1 order by field1; Received on Thu Mar 25 2004 - 22:41:39 CST
