On subsequent select

select *
from mytable
where rownum < 40
minus
select *
from mytable
where rownum < 20.

This will bring rows between 20 and 40. On the next select, replace 40 with 60 and 20 with 40....

Surjit,

The syntax is:

Select *
>From MyTable

Where RowNum < 21
And <more of your predicates>

All

I am sure this question has come up here before. I need to get the limited number
of rows from a table at a time (say 20 rows ) using sql . I know this can be
achieved using PL/SQL.
This is typically required in web based applications where you can only show a few
records at a time.

Your comments are highly appreciated.

Regards.

Surjit
