Hi,

Is there any mechanism (or trick) in SQL that I can say:

SELECT TOP 10 FROM TABLE
(I know that this exists, and that OK)

SELECT MIDDLE(11,20) FROM TABLE
(but what about this, I suppose that 'middle' does not exist???)

In other words I would like to have a 'Next>' button in the
app which should give me only a portion of data from a huge
table.

The main reason for this is the speed gain. It would be a waste
of speed and resources to get the whole recordset and internaly
truncate the unnecessary rows.
