Question

I need to write the code for pager on the web-page and usually with mysql it is simple solutions to SELECT with LIMIT 60, 20 which means select from 60 position 20 rows.

Now I’m working with SQL Server, but should to solve this problem – I know that the TOP syntax is unsuitable, I’ve also heard about ROW_NUMBER() function in SQL Server, but the examples that I’d found wasn’t clear enough – please help on the test table like “cars” to simply

select * from cars limit 20, 10

Answer 1

ROW_NUMBER() can’t be in your where clause, so you have to use a separate select:

select *
from (select row_number() over (ORDER BY cars.CarId) as Row, *
    from cars
    ) temp
where Row between 20 and 29
