I want to use this select statement to find these id's in this order
15, 12, 34,44,2. How can you do this?


        select *
	from   FDOH_Navigation
	where  id in (15,12,34,44,2)

[code]select * from FDOH_Navigation
Where id in (15,12,34,44,2)
Order by (Case When id = 15 then 0
When id = 12 then 1
When id = 34 then 2
When id = 44 then 3
When id = 2 then 4 Else id End)[/code]
