i’m creating a web app that’s running on an Advantage Database server, not my personal weapon of choice but that’s what the company uses.
I have a couple of big lists that the end-users need to be able to view however i can’t seem to find a way to page through the results in SQL.
Is there something like LIMIT / OFFSET for Advantage Database? If no, any suggestions on approaching this?
thank you in advance!
I understand that LIMIT and a ROWNUM will be new features in an upcoming version of Advantage.

However, until then, I have used this in the past to select row 50-60.
select top 10 * from mytable
where rowid not in (select top 50 rowid from mytable)
@tommieb75, you indicated that the SQL dialect was not standard. I have found that it is based on the standards containing most of the SQL-92 standard and some of the SQL-2003 features.
