Hi

I have :

table a (int, varchar, int)

1 | one   | 1
2 | two   | 3
3 | three | 2
4 | four  | 3
5 | five  | 2

And I would like to select it and sort it so that the 3rd field is first 2, 
then 1 and then 3. so that the result should be :

1 | one   | 1
3 | three | 2
5 | five  | 2
2 | two   | 3
4 | four  | 3

How could I do that ?
