Order don´t work

edited January 2005 in General
I created a query in the query designer. I Trying to order by the column
"COUNT_2", see the select below:

SELECT ENDCID.CODEST, ENDCID.CODCID,
ENDCID.DESCID, COUNT(*) COUNT_2
FROM ENDLCL ENDLCL, ENDCID ENDCID
WHERE (ENDCID.CODCID = ENDLCL.CODCID)
GROUP BY ENDCID.CODEST, ENDCID.CODCID,
ENDCID.DESCID
ORDER BY ENDCID.CODEST, 4 DESC

This select was generated by reportBuilder. It problem is the ORDER
don´t work, is ordered only "ENDCID.CODEST".
But if I change directly the SQL: "ORDER BY ENDCID.CODEST, COUNT_2 DESC"
the ORDER work's correctly.

In this case, if a Change de SQL I lost the VISUAL TAB RECURSE. How can
I do this work correctly without lost VISUAL TAB RECURSE.

TIA
Verissimo

    Hi Verissimo,

    Which database/connectivity are you using. If you enter the SQL
    ReportBuilder creates directly into your database, do you get the same
    effect?

    Verissimo,

    All ReportBuilder does is enter the generated SQL into your database and
    gather the data returned. Once you've completed designing your query are
    you able to preview the data successfully? In my testing with our Oracle
    database the following SQL statement worked correctly...

    SELECT SALES.CUSTOMER_ID, SALES PRODUCT
    SALES.AMOUNT, SUM(SALES.AMOUNT)
    SUM_SALES_AMOUNT

    FROM DEMO.SALES SALES

    GROUP BY SALES.CUSTOMER_ID, SALES.PRODUCT
    SALES.AMOUNT

    ORDER BY SALES.CUSTOMER_ID, 4 DESC
