Until now I either use 2 cursors or I do some paging and fill my screen size
or Subfile Page with this information as follows:

With x as (Select .... From File
Where ...
Order By Key1, Key2, ...
Fetch first :TotNbrRows rows Only)
Y as (Select * From x
Order By Key1 Desc, Key2 Desc, ...
Fetch first :NbrRowsPage rows Only)
Select *
From Y
Order By Key1, Key2, ...);

If you replace :TotNbrRows with 200 and NbrRowsPage with 20 then you?ll read
the 180 to 200th row.

Beginning with the last technology refresh, we?ll get LIMIT and OFFSET.

Select ?
From ?
Where ?
Order By
Limit 20 OffSet 100;

The example above starts with the 100th row and reads the next 20 rows of
the specified query.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

An: RPG programming on the IBM i / System i
Betreff: embedded SQL fetch relative -29 ...

Using SQL, I can page ahead in a page-at-a-time subfile easily but when it
comes time to page down, I believe the best way is for me to use fetch
retrieve - (2 pages +1). The few examples I have been able to find seem
correct and to the point, but I can not make them work. I am missing
something.

Can someone point to a good example somewhere that I can look at?
