Another SQL Question

Hi everyone.
I have just tried the following SQL

SELECT SKUNO, DIVISION, sum(PRICE), avg(price), count(*) FROM
FileA GROUP BY SKUNO, DIVISION ORDER BY sum(PRICE) desc, SKUNO,
DIVISION

with no problems

However, when I try the following:-
SELECT SKUNO, DIVISION, sum(PRICE), avg(price), count(*) FROM
FileA GROUP BY SKUNO, DIVISION ORDER BY count(*) desc, SKUNO,
DIVISION

I get the error

Use of function COUNT not valid.

anybody have any thoughts how I can easily sort the results in descending
count number order?

Thanks in advance
