how to query with child relations to same table and order this correctly
- by robertpnl
Hi,
Take this table:
id name sub_id
---------------------------
1 A (null)
2 B (null)
3 A2 1
4 A3 1
The sub_id column is a relation to his owm table, to column ID.
subid --- 0:1 --- id
Now I have the problem to make a correctly SELECT query to show that the child rows (which sub_id is not null) directly selected under his parent row. So this must be a correctly order:
1 A (null)
3 A2 1
4 A3 1
2 B (null)
A normal SELECT order the id. But how or which keyword help me to order this correctly?
JOIN isn't possible I think because I want to get all the rows seperated. Because the rows will be displayed on a Gridview (ASP.Net) with EntityDataSource but the child rows must be displayed directly under his parent.
Thank you.
