SQL ORDER BY IN SELECT FROM STRING SPLIT or Comma Separated Value

Question

I would like to know if is it possible in SQL to order by the query from the String_split or csv like this

select item_number 
from table1 
order by ('335484,105666,105681,338706,144516') 
      offset 0 rows fetch next 30 rows only

This list is the item_number with offset and fetch next ..

Thanks

Answer 1

不，这是不可能的，您尝试订购的每个字段都应该分开，在您的情况下，每个字段都在单引号内，然后用逗号分隔

If I understand correctly, you can use string operations for this. Because the question is tagged linq, let me assume you are using SQL Server:

select item_number 
from table1 
order by charindex(',', item_number + ',', ',' + '335484,105666,105681,338706,144516' + ',') 
offset 0 rows fetch next 30 rows only;

This returns the location of the number in the string and uses that location for ordering.

You can do something similar in other databases.
