HELP! Order By aplhabet... i think

Here is the question: "There are two tables Fruit and Vegetable table. The Fruit table has a FruitID and a Name column and the Vegetable table has a VegetableID and Name column. Create a list of all fruits and vegetables starting with the letters A through K . In other words all fruit and vegetables that don't start with the letter L to Z."

I put:

SELECT Name FROM Fruit UNION SELECT Name FROM Vegetable ORDER BY Name < "L";

Don't worry, you are very close. You need to put your condition in a WHERE condition and not in the order by clause. The condition is fine.

SELECT Name FROM Fruit WHERE Name < "L"
UNION 
SELECT Name FROM Vegetable WHERE Name < "L"
ORDER BY Name;
