Help with group by please...important!

Hi,
I have 4 databases:
Customer: Customer Name, CityID, Sales
City: CityID, CityName, DistrictID
District: DistrictID, RegionID
Region: RegionID

I need to write a SQL query that will show all the customers grouped by region and then district and ordred by sales. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Just to be more specific, I have four tables. The group by function will not work since I am not using an aggregate function. I have the following code but am getting a syntax error:

SELECT C.CUSTOMER_NAME
FROM CUSTOMER C INNER JOIN CITY C1 ON C.CITY_ID=C1.CITY_ID
INNER JOIN DISTRICT D ON D.SALES_DISTRICT=C1.SALES_DISTRICT
INNER JOIN REGION R ON R.SALES_REGION=D.SALES_REGION
ORDER BY R.SALES_REGION, D.SALES_DISTRICT;

Thanx.

I don't believe that it is grouping that you are after as much as order. Also you don't need to join the region table, that information already exists in the district table




tRY

SELECT D.SALES_REGION, D.SALES_DISTRICT, C.SALES, C.CUSTOMER_NAME
FROM CUSTOMER C INNER JOIN CITY C1 ON C.CITY_ID=C1.CITY_ID
INNER JOIN DISTRICT D ON D.SALES_DISTRICT=C1.SALES_DISTRICT
ORDER BY D.SALES_REGION, D.SALES_DISTRICT, C.Sales;
