I am using feed module to import form excel file, one of my field is a incremental number 1,2,3,4,5 ,..... ' , I get it as 'GUID' in feed importer. I want sort the result in views, I see the views get GUID as a string and sort it by string.anybody have idea how can I sort them as number ? **I want views sort GUID as integer not string** I test this but it return me sql error, The sql query of first(top) test : SELECT node.title AS node_title, node.nid AS nid, feeds_item.guid AS feeds_item_guid, 'node' AS field_data_field_model_node_entity_type, 'node' AS field_data_field_price_node_entity_type FROM {node} node LEFT JOIN {feeds_item} feeds_item ON node.nid = feeds_item.entity_id AND feeds_item.entity_type = 'node' WHERE (( (node.status = '1') AND (node.type IN ('products')) )) ORDER BY CAST(feeds_item_guid AS INTEGER) ASC LIMIT 100 OFFSET 0 function mymodule_views_query_alter(&$view, &$query) { if ($view->name == 'my_views') { $query->orderby[0]['field']='CAST('.$query->orderby[0]["field"].' AS INTEGER)'; } or I try $query->fields['feeds_item_guid']['field']='CAST('.$query->fields['feeds_item_guid']['field'].' AS INTEGER)'; **error of second try**: `SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'feeds_item.CASTguidASINTEGER' in 'field list'`
