asp_databases thread: Fetching Limited Data from a Dababase


Message #1 by "krishna kumar" <krishi_kk@u...> on Mon, 26 Feb 2001 18:58:33
Hi,

   Is there a way in which I can limit the number of rows fetched from the 

database at a time. we have a huge database (about 40 million rows) and 

depending on the query, we need to display, say 4000 rows, and then be 

able to fetch more rows and display the results on the website depending 

on the query.

 

Any ideas or suggestions



Thanks in advance,

Krishna

Use a navbar and limit the amount of rows you retrieve

Check out this article at http://www.smashco.com/pages.asp

This may or may not help you, since you're talking about 40 million records.



Hope this helps,

	Greg

What database?



In SQL Server, I believe you want the TOP command for your select statement.

In Oracle, look into the rownum pseudocolumn.

Hi

 We are using MS Visual Interdev to create the ASP pages.
