    <p>I'm trying to do some basic paging in MSSQL. The problem I'm having is that I'm sorting the paging on a row that (potentially) has similar values, and the ORDER BY clause is returning "random" results, which doesn't work well.</p> <p>So for example.</p> <p>If I have three rows, and I'm sorting them by a "rating", and all of the ratings are = '5' - the rows will seemingly "randomly" order themselves. How do I make it so the rows are showing up in the same order everytime?</p> <p>I tried ordering it by a datetime that the field was last edited, but the "rating" is sorted in reverse, and again, does not work how i expect it to work.</p> <p>Here is the SQL I'm using thus far. I know it's sort of confusing without the data so.. any help would be greatful.</p> <pre><code>SELECT * FROM ( SELECT CAST(grg.defaultthumbid AS VARCHAR) + '_' + CAST(grg.garageid AS VARCHAR) AS imagename, ( SELECT COUNT(imageid) FROM dbo.images im (nolock) WHERE im.garageid = grg.garageid ) AS piccount, ( SELECT COUNT(commentid) FROM dbo.comments cmt (nolock) WHERE cmt.garageid = grg.garageid ) AS commentcount, grg.GarageID, mk.make, mdl.model, grg.year, typ.type, usr.username, grg.content, grg.rating, grg.DateEdit as DateEdit, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY Rating DESC) As RowIndex FROM dbo.garage grg (nolock) LEFT JOIN dbo.users (nolock) AS usr ON (grg.userid = usr.userid) LEFT JOIN dbo.make (nolock) AS mk ON (grg.makeid = mk.makeid) LEFT JOIN dbo.type (nolock) AS typ ON (typ.typeid = mk.typeid) LEFT JOIN dbo.model (nolock) AS mdl ON (grg.modelid = mdl.modelid) WHERE typ.type = 'Automobile' AND grg.defaultthumbid != 0 AND usr.username IS NOT NULL ) As QueryResults WHERE RowIndex BETWEEN (2 - 1) * 25 + 2 AND 2 * 25 ORDER BY DateEdit DESC </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
