I think you might have misread my email, I'm quoting:
"I have a compound query with some grouping, having and order by's saved
as a view, say with name "myview".
So... I am using explicit order by's. The problem (now solved) was that
I somewhere subtle "hidden" in one of my subqueries, type casted a row
(varchar to int) but omitted to do the same one or two "levels up". This
messed up my sorting. Once I applied the type cast in every single bit
of statement or all (sub)selects, all was OK.
kind regards,
Jan
