Hi,

Any info on how to sort and rank 4 columns at the same time.

I have 4 columns
Select Salary, TransAllowance, HouseAllw, Cash from Payroll
1st column should be asc - the first will get number 1 pts
2nd column should be asc - 1 first will get number 1 pts
2 will get 2 pnts
last will get the last number of recound cnt
3rd column should be desc - opposite of 1 and 2 columns
4th column should be asc - same as 1st column

Result Record 1 1,000 (1pt) 500 (1pts) 2,000 (1 pts)
Record 2 1,500 (2pt) 800 (2pts) 1,000 (2 pts)

I found the answer. You have to use the RANK()
Example below:

select originator,holdtime,hubtime,
       RankHubTime = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY hubtime ASC),
       RankHoldTime = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY holdtime ASC),
 from #tmp1

Result:

Col1    Col2    Col3           col4    col5<br />
Test1	304925	59674601	1	2<br />
Test2	353072	62857242	2	4<br />
Test3	490172	24462340	4	3<br />
Test4	975875	15261822	3	4

Thanks
