basically:


select *
from (select *
from ( select *
from svcvhdp
order by svcnum
fetch first (:rowsPerPage * :pageNumber) rows only
) t1
order by svcnum desc
fetch first :PageNumber rows only
) t2
order by svcnum

Make sure you have the needed indexes.

Subject: Returning Record Sets from SQLRPGLE Web Services

Hi All,
I have a web service that calls a SQLRPGLE program and returns a
maximum of 1000 records. If a statement selects over 1000 records, and
multiple calls to the service are needed, how will the service know
where the current cursor should be?
The .net consultant who is writing the front end wants to pass a
page number, so for records 1000 through 2000 he would request page 2.
I think this would be possible using FETCH RELATIVE but I think this
would require that the cursor cannot move between calls and I cannot
guarantee that. Correct?
Just wondering how others might be handling this paging
situation in a web service.

Thanks for all suggestions and ideas...

Currently I'm using "Fetch C1 for :MaxElem Rows Into :OutDATA ; ".
