I have a SQL Table with a column called FullName which contains, for example, "John Smith".
How can order the data by the last name that appears in the FullName column?
For a long name like "Laurence John Fishburne", I would like to order the data by the word "Fishburne".
Thus, names are stored in the order
- First Name
- Middle Names
- Last Name
I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
