正如其他答案所述，在最后一个UNION之后的ORDER BY应该适用于由UNION连接的两个数据集。

我有两个使用不同表但相同列的数据集。上一个联盟之后的命令仍然没有起作用。

为ORDER BY子句中使用的列使用别名可以达到目的。

SELECT Name, Address FROM Employee 
UNION
SELECT Customer_Name, Address FROM Customer
ORDER BY customer_name;   --Won't work

解决方案是使用别名User_Name，如下所示:

SELECT Name AS User_Name, Address FROM Employee 
UNION
SELECT Customer_Name AS User_Name, Address FROM Customer
ORDER BY User_Name; 

可以用这个:

Select id,name,age
From Student
Where age < 15
Union ALL
SELECT * FROM (Select id,name,age
From Student
Where Name like "%a%")

顺序顺序应用在并集之后，所以 在语句的末尾添加一个order by子句:

Select id,name,age
From Student
Where age < 15
Union
Select id,name,age
From Student
Where Name like '%a%'
Order By name

Select id,name,age
from
(
   Select id,name,age
   From Student
   Where age < 15
  Union
   Select id,name,age
   From Student
   Where Name like "%a%"
) results
order by name

为了添加到旧的主题，我使用了ROW_NUMBER(使用MS SQL)。这允许在union内排序(顺序)。 所以使用来自@BATabNabber的想法来分离联盟的每一半，而@Wodin将整个事情包装在一个选择中，我得到:

Select Id, Name, Age from
(
Select Id, Name, Age, 1 as Mainsort
 , ROW_NUMBER() over (order by age) as RowNumber
From Student
Where Age < 15

Union

Select Id, Name, Age, 2 as Mainsort
 , ROW_NUMBER() over (Order by Name) as RowNumber
From Student
Where Name like '%a%'
) as x
Order by Mainsort, RowNumber

所以调整，或省略，你想要的顺序，并添加下降，因为你认为合适。
