    Informix 9.3 order by case clause dont work

    select * from branch
    order by
    Case 1 when '101' then '!' Else 1 End

    This works in informix 9.4 and greater and MSSQL but not informix 9.3, anyone know why or have a solution for 9.3?

    thanks

    try

    move your case to one of the columns and then call it by reference

    select case...., *
    from .....
    order by 1
