Queried data not in ascent in ASP.Net project

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

In my ASP.Net project, I have several queries to load data from the Oracle DB. One of the query string is below:

HTML

SELECT distinct VCRS FROM TBL_VPOSITION ACS

How the data obtained is in descent order rather than in ascent order.
If I run the query string in Oracle SQL Developer, the obtained results are normal.
Do you know why it happens? Thanks.

Solution 1

Your query hasn't specified any sort order. Instead, you've specified an alias of "ACS" for the table "TBL_VPOSITION".

Add an ORDER BY clause[^] to your query:

SQL

SELECT DISTINCT VCRS FROM TBL_VPOSITION ORDER BY VCRS ASC

Got error using your query string: SQL Error: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended. I through yours should be right.

How are you calling the query? Is it part of a view, a nested query, or a UNION query?

I run the query in Oracle SQL developer. No union at all.

You could try adding a semi-colon to the end, but if your original query was working, I don't think it will make a difference.
SELECT DISTINCT VCRS FROM TBL_VPOSITION ORDER BY VCRS ASC;

Already tried w/ the same result. Stranger, your answer should be right.
