Re: How to sort strings containing a dot?

Thanks Adam. No, It doesn't.

But I have found a solution which works :

select name from (select distinct name from t) as name order by replace(name, '.', 'a');
   name
----------
 co.aaa
 co.abb
 co.cab
 co.ment
 com
 com.enta
(6 lines)


Thanks to all of you.
