The common thing to do is to write your query in such
a way that what interests you most is put left ...

Create a clustered index on the attribute you want it ordered by. (I'm not sure is a clustered index can be a composite, but the docs or someone else here will let you know :-)

Note that any inserts (or updates on the attr with the clustered index) will cause the ordering to be broken, in which case you'll need to re-cluster.
