Sorry to ask this question in here, but all the dudes that know anything
about this seem to be in here.

I have a MySql table that stores:

date (MYSQL format) 0000-00-00
and Time: 00:00:00

I need to SELECT from the database and order by Date then time DESC.

Thing is I can't get it to work.
I have this.

SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY date,time DESC.

It only ever orders the time not the date. It gives me the date with oldest
first, and the time with newest first.

Basically I want the most Recent date to show on my list first then the
times in descending order also.
 Any idea how to do this?

A basic example of my result is this.

2004-12-26 20:30
2004-12-26 19:30
2004-12-27 18:30
2004-12-28 12:30

I want:

2004-12-28 12:30
2004-12-27 18:30
2004-12-26 20:30
2004-12-26 19:30

Make sense?

Thanks,

Ax
