That's how I do it. Works fine for me.

With RS as
(Select RowNumber() over (Order by ....) as RowNumber, ... from ...)
Select * from RS
Where RowNumber between x and y

Subject: SQL Paging Mechanism

I am about to put together an SQL based paging mechanism over a resultset that could be very large.

Can anyone share their preferred mechanism for paging efficiently thru an SQL resultset without bringing back all records at the same time.

I have played with putting a row number on each row and setting the starting row number and that seems to be OK, but any thoughts would be appreciated.

Regards,
Richard Schoen
