Re: DB2 vs MySQL ... Oh I have learned a lot!

I just found it...

On page 665 of the IBM i: DB2 For i SQL Reference.

That is where I found the Fetch First clause... and the alternative Limit clause is after the Fetch First definition in a table as a side note.

I am pleased with their implementation of Limit from MySQL. Would have been great if it had been implemented the same, and not so verbose...

Um … it is the same

MySQL - SELECT * FROM Orders LIMIT 10 OFFSET 15 ( or alternatively SELECT * FROM Orders LIMIT 15, 10 )

DB2 - SELECT * FROM Orders LIMIT 10 OFFSET 15 ( or alternatively SELECT * FROM Orders LIMIT 15, 10 )

Darned if I can see a difference.
