You'll have to use something like decode() to do this.
.... order by decode(ID,6,1,2,2,8,3)
or whatever is the equivalent in your particular database.

HI
I use this question and it works fine but I want to sort it in the same
order as the "IN list"
SELECT ID, firstname, lastname FRON person WHERE ID IN (6,2,8)
Now I want it to be sorted in the same order as "IN (6,2,8)" I mhave
tried ORDER BY FIELD(ID, 6,2,8) but then I get an error
IS thier someone who knows somthing about this?
Thanks in advance
