INSERT INTO PROJECTS
SELECT * FROM NEW_PROJECTS
WHERE NEW_PROJECTS.START_DATE > ��6-JUN-1994��;

I know the above can work. But my question is:

Can I add an "ORDER BY" to the SELECT? If yes, how? Something like:

INSERT INTO PROJECTS
SELECT * FROM NEW_PROJECTS
ORDER BY ...

doesn't work.

If not, what to do if I want to insert into one table with some rows from
another dataset which is somehow sorted?

Rgds!
