Hello, I am trying to select distinct dates and order them in the reverse chronological order. Although the column type is TIMESTAMP, in this case I want only YYYY, MM, and DD back. I am using the following query, but it's not returning dates back in the reverse chronological order: SELECT DISTINCT date_part('year', uu.add_date), date_part('month', uu.add_date), date_part('day', uu.add_date) FROM uus INNER JOIN ui ON uus.user_id=ui.id INNER JOIN uu ON ui.id=uu.user_id WHERE uus.x_id=1 ORDER BY date_part('year', uu.add_date), date_part('month', uu.add_date), date_part('day', uu.add_date) DESC; This is what the above query returns: date_part | date_part | date_part -----------+-----------+----------- 2004 | 2 | 6 2004 | 4 | 20 (2 rows) I am trying to get back something like this: 2004 4 20 2004 4 19 2004 2 6 ... My query is obviously wrong, but I can't see the mistake. I was wondering if anyone else can see it. Just changing DESC to ASC, did not work.
