Subject: RE: displaying limited number of rows
Date: Mar 23 2001 5:44PM
Follow-on question along these lines (probably easier, although I know how
to do this in Oracle, but not Sybase)... If I want to place a column
number next to the output from a query indicating where I am at in the
output such as a list of names:
Column1: Column2:
1 Name #1
2 Name #2
3 Name #3
. .
. .
. .
N Name #N
How do I do this in my query?

Ah.
I was wondering if this was what you were looking for...
Well - the short answer is that you can't do what you want (or at
least not easily)
However, you can program things so that you can get the behaviour you
want, by doing something like this:
set rowcount 50
select ... from ...
In the script, remember the last row, and now, when the user wants the
next page, you do:
select ... from ... where {somekey} > {last value}
and so on.
This works well, but you of course need to have a reasonable key on
which to base your where clause...
