Question

I need to order my data by the latest date.

This SQL statment is working

final String selectSql = "select * from questionnaire where userprofileid=" + userProfileID ;

This SQL statment is ** NOT working**

final String selectSql = "select * from questionnaire where userprofileid=" + userProfileID +"ORDER by datecreated desc";

Error Message:
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘by datecreated desc’ at line 1

Answer 1

You need to add a space before ORDER:

final String selectSql = "select * from questionnaire where userprofileid=" + userProfileID +" ORDER by datecreated desc";
