Row Offset in SQL Server

Question

Is there any way in SQL Server to get the results starting at a given offset? For example, in another type of SQL database, it\'s possible to do:

SELECT * FR         


        

Answer 1

In SqlServer2005 you can do the following:

DECLARE @Limit INT
DECLARE @Offset INT
SET @Offset = 120000
SET @Limit = 10

SELECT 
    * 
FROM
(
   SELECT 
       row_number() 
   OVER 
      (ORDER BY column) AS rownum, column2, column3, .... columnX
   FROM   
     table
) AS A
WHERE 
 A.rownum BETWEEN (@Offset) AND (@Offset + @Limit-1)
