And, how do you think it is sorted?

Actually HOST_NAME() is a system function.

As well as DB_NAME(), USER, SYSTEM_USER, etc.

You can use it in any SELECT statement.

Look for details in BOL.

If HOST_NAME() is what you need?

If to assume that "hits" is a positive integer number then this should work:

SELECT {blah}

FROM {sometable}

ORDER BY CASE WHEN @sort = '{whatever}' THEN STR(2147483647-hits, 10) ELSE name END ASC

I guess it's a wrong forum for this question.

SQL Server 7,2000 don't support such constructions.

You may create procedure as system procedure in master database.

Then it will be executed in context of current database.

You may enclose whole nasty part in a view.

At least it will be hidden from your eyes. 🙂
