Sorting by name through ID...?

Recommended Posts

Hello, it may be something very simple that I'm missing, but I cant seem to figure this out...

we have 2 tables and a linking table:
Users (UserID, UserName, etc)
Group(GroupID, GroupName, etc)
UsersInGroup(LinkID, GroupID, UserID)

Simple enough...

Now, I want to display the users where GroupID = 1... So I select all in UsersInGroup where GroupID = 1; that gives me all the users...

Now, I want to sort them by name... How would I do that? I cant use the ORDER command in the SQL code because the username isnt even in the UsersInGroup, only the UserID exists there.

Thank you in advance! [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":smile:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /]

I have created the same setup that you have and this should give you the proper results.
