MySql 4.x to 5.0.18

This select statement now gives me an error after upgrading to PHP 5.0.18

 SELECT * from entries where CatID='$catid' and validated='1'
 order by out DESC limit $start,$numentries 

Code (markup):

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'out DESC limit 0,8' at line 1

Any Ideas?

TIA

 

The version of PHP has nothing to do with this.
Try this sql statement :

SELECT * FROM `entries` 
WHERE `CatID` = '$catid' AND `validated` = '1' 
ORDER BY `out` DESC LIMIT $start, $numentries

You rock man, thank you.
