Subject: Query to retrieve the first 10 records inserted
Posted By: anup_daware Post Date: 8/6/2007 1:50:44 AM
I need to write a query/stored procedure where I want to get a specific number for records (say 10) from the database according to the time they are inserted into DB.
I store the insert time using SYSDATE and I want to retrieve the first ten inserted records (i.e. having smallest SYSDATE value) and then delete those from DB in one transaction.
If my table looks something like this:
RecordNum    RecordType    InsertTime
10    A    10/08/2007 14:20
20    B    10/08/2007 14:22
30    A    10/08/2007 14:27
…    …    …

Please let me know how to go about it.
Thanks,
Anup
