I have looked in a couple manuals for this but have not found it. When doing a group by, a sort is done on the data. Is there anyway to specify a descending order for that sort? It is defaulted to ascending. Is there a way of overriding that? I told the developer that she should put it into a subquery but the query itself (all 3 pages) is already complex enough. Any ideas? Thank you in advance.
