Give a name to your "table".
select top 1 OrderID from (select top 2 OrderID from
T_orderheader order by OrderID desc) l
order by OrderID asc
something like
SELECT TOP 1 *
FROM (SELECT TOP 2*
FROM tablename
ORDER BY columnname DESC)e1
ORDER BY Sal
SELECT TOP 1 *
FROM (SELECT TOP 2*
FROM tablename
ORDER BY columnname DESC)e1
ORDER BY Sal
