Question

I am making some paging, and I need to make some query and get the result form defined slicing .
for example: I need to get all “top” rows in range 20n < x < 40n etc.

SELECT * FROM Reflow  
WHERE ReflowProcessID = somenumber
ORDER BY ID DESC;

and now I need to make my sliding by column called ID .

Any suggestions how to so ? I need to run my query on mysql, mssql, and oracle.

Assuming your page size is 20 record, and you wanna get page number 2, here is how you would do it:

SQL Server, Oracle:

SELECT *   -- <-- pick any columns here from your table, if you wanna exclude the RowNumber
FROM (SELECT ROW_NUMBER OVER(ORDER BY ID DESC) RowNumber, * 
      FROM Reflow  
      WHERE ReflowProcessID = somenumber) t
WHERE RowNumber >= 20 AND RowNumber <= 40    

MySQL:

SELECT * 
FROM Reflow  
WHERE ReflowProcessID = somenumber
ORDER BY ID DESC
LIMIT 20 OFFSET 20
