Not clear. Record what? in what "format"? Stored procedure? Anything else? What are you talking about?

can you paste your full query here so that it will be easy to find your problem,need to check wheater are you using any order by in you query.

If I understand correctly, he would like his list ordered by the order of his condition, that is list should be ordered by 2,3,5,1 just as he entered IN condition.

Unfortunately, IN works as series of ORs and there is no guarantee of any order unless ORDER BY is specified.

In this particular case ORDER BY time field or 1492 would work, but this is too small sample to know for sure. Post more details.

Please use below example, it's helpful for you.

create table #temp
(
empid int
)

insert into #temp(empid) values(1)
insert into #temp(empid) values(2)
insert into #temp(empid) values(3)
insert into #temp(empid) values(5)

select * from #temp order by empid%2

Hello ,
As there is a primary Key on the table. so,you will always get the order by Ascending clause.Because of clustered Indexes.Refer the link For More Explanation:Code Project:Indexes
MSDN

There is one possible solution. you need to make a stored procedure for this.In which First Insert a Record in the temp table.Created a PRimary Key on that temp table.Then Insert the record in sequence in which you want one by one.

Hope It Might Helps You.
