 * Hi All
 * I haven’t been getting much of a response elsewhere, so Im hoping to get an answer
   here.
 * I have a new SQL query that I’d like to use to view categories instead of the
   default. It will sort based on a custom field. I have the query, I just need 
   to know where to put it so that anytime anyone clicks on a category, this SQL
   query is used and not the default (which I believe sorts based on the post title).
 * Can anyone help?
 * Thanks!
    Rob
