ORDER BY should be no problem. You can always order by the column's ordinal
position, e.g.

SELECT PIN, NAME
FROM PERSON
ORDER BY 2

will order by NAME. The same applies if you do some calculations as part of
your SELECT - and I guess that's were you'll use your functions.

GROUP BY might be trickier and I think you may have to use stored
procedures, but I'll leave that answer to someone else...
