As far as i can tell, mysql's limit requires a limit as well as. I would like to construct a query that displays all the results in a table, but is offset by 5 from the start of the table. Is there any way in sql server to get the results starting at a given offset?
0 offset is majorly used to support pagination in mysql select statements. Why don't you set offset and limit directly? Why is offset = skip and limit = offset?
In postgresql there is the limit and offset keywords which will allow very easy pagination of result sets. In that case, the sql offset will have to be calculated. For example, in another type of sql database, it's possible to do: An offset within an array or other data structure object is an integer indicating the distance (displacement) between the beginning of the object and a given element or point,.
What is the equivalent syntax for sql server? First the query will execute and then the records after the offset will be returned.
