How to Preserve order

hello everyone
I have a doubt regarding the ordering of the search results..
My SQL Query is
<B> select id,album_artist from catalog_details where id in (21,17,19,16) </B>
After the above SQL is executed , the results are displayed in the order of "ID" column ,
Something like.......
id album_artist
16 Completeness Cogs Art
17 Shah rukh
19 Completeness Cogs Art
21 kamal
but i want to preserve the order as i have given in the "IN" statement( i want order to be exactly as 21,17,19,16).
Is it possible to do it through the SQL Query itself.
I welcome ur suggesions
Bye
E.Faisal

Just order it the way you want after you retrieve the data.

How to preserve order of photos imported from Aperture

I've imported my Aperture library into LR.
The process went generally fine, however I'm unable to figure out how to get the original image order.
I was using custom ordering for Aperture's "projects" and "slideshows". Both got translated to collections, however the image order doesn't seem to be preserved. This is crucial feature for slideshows...
Does the import plugin translate the Aperture order into the Lightroom "Custom Order" ?
If not, what would be the suggested way to restore the proper image order in slideshows?

When you select a collection the tool bar above the filmstrip lets you reverse the order by clicking the A/Z symbol. It also has a drop-down menu to the right of sort. You can choose a number of options. But the beauty of collections is that you can drag thumbnails around into any order. They then remain fixed in your own user order. Useful for slideshows, web galleries etc.

Hi, Kiran,
As the others have said, the only way ^1^ to get the result set in any particular order is to use an ORDER BY clause.
Here's the general way to do that in SQL in case of a UNION:
WITH union_results     AS
     select 'a' AS txt, 1 AS sort_key from DUAL
    union
     select 'd',        2             from DUAL
    union
     select 'b',        3           from DUAL
    union
     select 'c',        4           from dual
SELECT    txt
FROM       union_results
ORDER BY sort_key
;In SQL, you can only ORDER BY expressions that arei n the SELECT clause, so to avoid displaying sort_key, the sub-query is necessary. A lot of people don't use pure SQL for this; they have their front end hide the sort_key column. In SQL*Plus, for example, you can say COLUMN sort_key NOPRINT.
^1^ There is one exception, which does NOT apply to this case, or most others. CONNECT BY, even without ORDER BY, does impose a partial ordering.

LR 4 AVCHD support - how to preserve quality for future use?

I was excited to see that LR 4 would support the AVCHD format, but I've run into a bit of a Catch-22. I have a Panasonic Lumix GH2 that records very good video in AVCHD format, and previous to LR 4 I've had to use Final Cut Pro to import the video files from the SD card, which can be hard to remember to do (a dumb problem, but a real one). So with LR 4 being able to import and work with AVCHD files, it's a step forward, but the question becomes how to preserve maximum qualtiy of the files for future, possibly professional, use.
AVCHD is of course a compressed format, and so is h.264. When I saw that one can export from LR 4 in "Original" format, I assumed it would be possible to establish a workflow wherein the files could be imported from the card into LR 4, then, if desired, exported (using "Original" format) and imported into Final Cut in Apple Pro Res format (minimal compression) for instance.
But the problem is that Final Cut doesn't see anything valid in the directory structure that LR creates in its export process, whereas it does see valid files when it's pointed to the original files on the card. Is it a simple problem of directory sturcture?
I think there should be more professional export options for AVCHD files, such as Apple Pro Res, or an uncompressed format. At the very least, there should be a simple and obvious workflow in which LR imports the files and, in copying the files from the card, creates the directory structure that apps such as Final Cut need in order to see the video files.
Thanks

Hi,
DSS has inbuilt functionalities to compare the transactions against the in built rules.If the transactions take place not in accordance with the in-built rules,it is treated as a "violation" and is reporetd.
Virsa is an example of DSS tool.Here you can build rules for access and process ;constantly compare the actuals Vs the rules;report the violations.
In SAP R3 for example,the T/code:pfcg is tailored for access control,while the invoice parking [f-63] is tailored for process control.Using VIRSA,you can address to risks involved both,namely,access and process control.This is an example of how DSS can help in Risk integration.
In these tools,we have an Engine for building the rules-based on this we build the rules.These rules are stored in a table.when a transaction-for which we have built a rule - takes place,the system compares the rules VS actuals.The inconsistencies if any are reported as violations.
Hope this helps.

Ramesh

How to use order by within Group by clause

Hi All,
I need a help as to how should i use the Order by clause so that the data should be in order with respect to one column, and at the same time whole data is grouped by some other column...like
Select RaceNo,Venue,FP,BP from Race group by RaceNo
Here I want to order by FP in ascending order for each group. When i am using it , whole order is changing.
Can anybody suggest me how to use order by clause that would apply to each group of data.
Thanks .

order by clause should be used at the last in any query.......but in group by clause u can't use use that becoz u group according to column then no ordering is needed there......if u want to filter something then u can use having clause and later if u need to arrange then u can use order by clause.........
i hope this eg.l gives u some clarification....
e.g
select deptno,count(empno)
from dept
group by deptno
having count(empno) > 10
order by deptno

HT5525 How can I order more than one picture at a time in iphoto?

How can I order more than one picture at a time in iphoto?

It's also wise to crop the photos to the print size you're ordering so you have control over what portion of the image gets printed. Otherwise, the image will be scaled so the smaller dimension fills the paper cropping off some of the oither dimension.

How do I order more than one book at a time?

I created 10 photo books I would like to order, but when I go to place my order I can only place one book at a time. I do not want to place 10 different orders. How do I order more than one book at a time?

You can't. Only multiples of the same book can be ordered at a time. Each individiual book must be ordered separately.

How can I order a calendar that I created in iPhoto 7.1.5, now incompatible with Apple Store.

How can I order a calendar that I created in iPhoto 7.1.5 which is now incompatible with the Apple Store? I am using a mac pro 1,1 which cannot upgrade to the new version of iPhoto.

You could try to upgrade to an earlier iPhoto '11 version, since you are running Snowleopard.
iPhoto '11 should still be available as part of the boxed retail version of iLife '11.
Try to buy one at Amazon, then upgrade to iPhoto 9.2.x from the Support page: http://support.apple.com/downloads/#iphoto%209.2

How to change order unit in ME22n for particular vendor

Dear All,
We have defined ordering unit in material master as "L".
For other vendors & new PO we get proper ord.unit display.
But we r not getting in PO of particular vendor.
How to get order unit in ME22n ? What is the relation of order unit with Vendor ?

Hi
Did you ordere the particular material for the vendor concerned already with different Order unit (SKU), this might be the reason why you are not getting the ordering unit in PO while ordering. Did you maintain the details of conversion in master between SKU & Ordering unit,if yes, then check for Info Record for the material and vendor combination and in the Genaral Data Tab chek for the variable order unit activation if not available then activate it and if the system is asking the conversiondetails enter herr the conversion also. Now if you create PO you will be able to assigne the new order unit.

To transfer your current hard drive I like the free application SuperDuper. It makes a bootable copy of everything on your hard drive http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html You'll need a cheap SATA external hard drive case. Put the new drive in the case then format and partition the new drive and clone your old drive to the new one. Check that it's set up right by booting up from the external drive. Then replace your old hard drive with the new one and put your old one in the external case.

If you haven't found an answer yet. I know for a fact that this can be ordered directly from Apple at no extra cost
You can either ask for this when buying a new MBP at a "physical" Apple store, or as in my case in the UK the online Apple store allows such keyboard configuration in addition to 3 other languages like Spanish, German and French
