Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'UNION'. ??

Hi,
Why does this query give this error?
SELECT TOP 1 tblSMS.*, tblCampaigns.Mail
FROM tblSMS LEFT JOIN tblCampaigns ON tblSms.Campaign =
tblCampaigns.Campaign
WHERE (Number = '+32479990284') OR (Number = '0479990284')
ORDER BY SendDate DESC
UNION
SELECT DISTINCT tblSMS.*, tblCampaigns.Mail
FROM tblSMS LEFT JOIN tblCampaigns ON tblSms.Campaign =
tblCampaigns.Campaign
WHERE ((Number = '+32479990284') OR (Number = '0479990284')) AND (SendDate
> DATEADD(hh, 48 ,GETDATE() ))
Error:
Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 5
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'UNION'.
What I need to do is Select all the records (tblSMS) with SendDate from the
last 48 hours, and I have also to select the Last one (in case it isn't yet
in the last 48 hours).
Does anybody knwos what goes wrong?
If I try the two query's separetly they work fine...
Thanks a lot,
Pieter
You can't have an ORDER BY before the UNION. Put the ORDER BY after the
final SELECT.
