Обсуждение: ORDER BY question

I have a field with names in which I wish to sort using ORDER BY.

The data comes back as [A-Z][a-z]
Apple
Blackberry
Kiwi
aardvark
banana

It should be [Aa-Zz]
aardvark
Apple
banana
Blackberry
Kiwi

They seem to be sorting using the ASCII equivelant.

Is there any way to do a case insensitive sort?.

Thanks in advance
Grant

Try:
SELECT colum_name
FROM table_name
ORDER BY upper(colum_name);

For a list of support functios like upper() check this url:
