If you mean you want to sort by date first then by names

SELECT id, name, form_id, DATE(updated_at) as date
  FROM wp_frm_items
  WHERE user_id = 11 && form_id=9
  ORDER BY updated_at DESC,name ASC

This will sort the records by date first, then by names

SELECT id  name  form id  DATE updated at  as date FROM wp frm items WHERE user id   11  amp  amp  form id 9 ORDER BY date ASC    DESC  stands for descending but you need ascending order   ASC

This is one of the simplest ways to sort record by Date   SELECT   Article Id      Title      Source Link      Content      Source     Reg Date   UNIX TIMESTAMP    Reg Date    AS DATE FROM article ORDER BY DATE DESC

If you want the last 5 rows  ordered in ascending order  you need a subquery   SELECT   FROM       SELECT id  name  form id  DATE updated at  AS updated date  updated at       FROM wp frm items       WHERE user id   11          AND form id 9       ORDER BY updated at DESC       LIMIT 5       AS tmp ORDER BY updated at     After reading the question for 10th time  this may be  just maybe  what you want  Order by Date descending and then order by time  on same date  ascending   SELECT id  name  form id  DATE updated at  AS updated date FROM wp frm items WHERE user id   11    AND form id 9 ORDER BY DATE updated at  DESC          updated at ASC

I used a simpler solution found partly here  How to sort details with Date and time in sql server   I used this query to get my results     SELECT TOP  5    FROM My Table Name WHERE id WhateverValueINeed ORDER BY DateTimeColumnName DESC  This is more straight forward and worked for me   Notice  the column of the Date has the  datetime  type

putting the UNIX TIMESTAMP will do the trick   SELECT id  NAME  form id  UNIX TIMESTAMP updated at  AS DATE     FROM wp frm items     WHERE user id   11  amp  amp  form id 9     ORDER BY DATE DESC
