The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SQL query by date not sorting correctly

Asked by wjpbrand in MS SQL Server, SQL Server 2005

Tags: , , , ,

Hi

I have a SQL statement which reads as follows:
select * from WODBase q1
order by q1.Date

This works very well and sorts by date but the problem is that it is only looking at the first two digits.
For instance it will put the 3/12/2007 in front of 28/11/2007 because it is only looking at the days and not the months or even the year.

The software is sigmanest and you can write your own reports by querying the database etc.

Regards
