I have a datbase that look like this:

vnr|cnr|enr|             ip|dato
---+---+---+---------------+----------------------
  1|  1| 17|195.192.136.223|1998-10-14 02:30:18+02
  2|  1|  1|195.192.136.164|1998-10-14 02:33:03+02
  5|  1| 13|195.192.136.173|1998-10-14 02:49:24+02
  8|  1| 15|195.192.136.207|1998-10-14 02:49:27+02
  9|  1| 16|195.192.136.211|1998-10-14 02:49:31+02
 10|  1| 11|195.192.136.123|1998-10-14 02:49:44+02
 11|  1| 15|195.192.136.162|1998-10-14 02:49:48+02
  7|  1| 13|195.192.136.126|1998-10-14 02:49:50+02


Where vnr, cnr, enr are int fields, and ip, date are text. The database
is used for a votingsystem. vnr is the vote number, cnr is the
contestnumber and enr is the entrynumber.

When i do a :

./psql -c "select count(vnr),enr from votes where cnr=1 group by enr"
vote

to get the result from contest number 1 i get :

count|enr
-----+---
   11|  1
    1|  2
    1|  3
    4|  4
    1|  5
    1|  6
   10|  8
....

This is almost what i want, execpt that i want the result to be ordered
by count, instead og enr. so that the entry, which got most  votes is listed first

For example:

   11|  1
   10|  8
    4|  4
    1|  2
    1|  3
    1|  5
    1|  6



hope someone outthere can help me :)
