Is having an order by in a view legal? In sybase ASA, mssql it throws a
syntax error if there's an order by.
If so, does it do 2 sorts when you sort by something else?
i.e. if view is
create view v1 as select * from table order by 1;
and the statment
select * from v1 order by 2;
is run does it sort by 1 then resort by 2?
