Restrict number of rows returned?

Is there a way in Oracle (8.0.5) to restrict the number of rows returned from a query (using SQL Worksheet or SQL*Plus)?

(Something similar to either SELECT TOP n * or SET ROWCOUNT n in SQL Server).

The restriction must be carried out on the server side since I am testing some queries that return large result sets over a slow communications linkto review the results of a "batch" application.

Thanks,
Tore. Received on Fri Dec 29 2000 - 09:13:56 CST
