Order by date and time

I have two varchar fields which store the date and time in the following format: date=2010-08-18; time=07:53:55;

What would be the right sql query to show m开发者_JAVA百科e the events from the most recent to the oldest

Aside from recommending that you use MySQL datetime fields rather than VARCHARs for any date or time values; what about something simple like adding an ORDER BY clause to your query:

ORDER BY `DATE` DESC, `TIME` DESC
