Hi Rocky, Yes it will sort the Nulls to the bottom. But the non-Nulls will be sorted according to the Class value, which is not what will happen with: SELECT VarietyTBL.VarietyID, VarietyTBL.Class, VarietyTBL.Variety FROM VarietyTBL ORDER BY IIf(IsNull(Class),2,1), VarietyTBL.Variety or with: SELECT VarietyTBL.VarietyID, VarietyTBL.Class, VarietyTBL.Variety FROM VarietyTBL ORDER BY IsNull(Class) DESC, VarietyTBL.Variety Regards Steve Rocky Smolin at Beach Access Software wrote: > How different?
