Calculated ORDER BY?

Hi,

Today I got a request to see if it's possible to join 2 columns together and base my ORDER BY upon that.
This is what I have, working fine:

CREATE VIEW user.view
AS
SELECT TOP 3 Id, Naam, Host, Woonplaats, IdAbon, WidthH, HeightH, YesCount
FROM user.table
WHERE (IdAbon = 3) AND (Foto = 1)
ORDER BY YesCount

Point is now, to sort the list on a combined value of YesCount & Datum
Datum is a date value, off course, and YesCount is an integer.

When I do this:

CREATE VIEW user.view
AS
SELECT TOP 3 Id, Naam, Host, Woonplaats, IdAbon, WidthH, HeightH, YesCount, Datum
FROM user.table
WHERE (IdAbon = 3) AND (Foto = 1)
ORDER BY (YesCount+Datum)

syntax check turns out succesfull, but I can't save the view.
Error code: "Error 4511: Could not perform CREATE VIEW because no column name was specified for column 10."
Which basically means, he wants the expression (YesCount+Datum) as a new column. How can I fix this?

Or, any other suggestions on how to fix it?

Thanx in Adv.
