Re: R: SQL Question

If you are on V5R1, you can use fetch-first clause.
See this link for syntax:

Good morning. As far as i know the only way to simulate a partial retrieval
(first nn rows) is (at least up to V4R5) to write a UFD function that
simply
adds 1 to a counter.
Your SQL will look like "Select  counter, YrField from YrTable Where
Counter
< 10" Counter is an UserDefinedFunction.  You may take a look at
www.as400network.com, there sould be an article by P.Conte or M.Kravitz.
