List By Nearest Date?

Hi, I'm making a birthdays database where I want to list everyone in it ordered by the firstcoming birthdays according to the current date.

I have all the birthday records stored in a table called bursdager and the person name is stored in the navn column and the persons birthday date is stored in the dato column.

I'm having some problems, currently I have this statement:


Code:


DECLARE @tbl TABLE (navn VARCHAR(60), dato DATETIME)


INSERT INTO @tbl
SELECT navn, dato FROM bursdager
WHERE DATEPART(month, dato) >= DATEPART(month, getdate())
ORDER BY DATEPART(month, dato), DATEPART(day, dato)


INSERT INTO @tbl -- those are the one who allready have had birthday this year
SELECT navn, dato FROM bursdager
WHERE DATEPART(month, dato) < DATEPART(month, getdate())
ORDER BY DATEPART(month, dato), DATEPART(day, dato)



SELECT * FROM @tbl





It works *allmost* as it should-- except, it still lists the last persons who had birthday first, even the days after their birthday if the month is still the same.

I thought about adding an additional check:
Code:

AND DATEPART(day, dato) >= DATEPART(day, getdate())

in the WHERE clause of the SELECT statement but that won't be correct either because it then just lists everyone based on whether the day number the person was born is higher or less than the day number of the current date.

Anyone have any suggestions? Is there an easier way to do it?
