Hi there,

wanna ask if the sql syntax order by and group by the same?
eg: i have a dropdownlist and the values displayed should be in ascending order. hence is there any difference if i use these 2 sql statements below.

sql1 = "select distinct * from t_staff group by staff"
sql2 = "select distinct * from t_staff order by staff"

i've tested it out and it works well. was curious to know if there is any explaination/meaning behind the scene.

Though i know it may be peanut to you guys..but Thanks Alot!
cheers,
ohgosh
