Hello All,


           How can I select Next few rows . e.g. SELECT FIRST 1000 * FROM emp ----> it will give me first 1000 record.

           But if I need next 1001 - 2000 rows , then how can I select in Informix 11.70?


      Kindly guide.


Thanks
Amit Patel

#Informix

I checked in google and found below syntax :

SELECT SKIP 1000 FIRST 1000 * FROM emp ;    ---- it will skip first start 1000 records and will show next 1000 rows;

As Paul hinted:

SELECT SKIP 1000 FIRST 1000 * FROM emp;

Hi Amit,

I prefer a small SPL routine in the case to go step by step through the result set - more flexible.

FWIW, in an application you can also use a CURSOR to process portions of a result set fetched without the FIRST <n> clause. Also you can use a SCROLL CURSOR to move forward and backward through a result set!
