Is There An MS SQL Limit Function?

May 13, 2006

MySQL has a convenient syntax for paging data that looks like this:
SELECT * FROM MyTable LIMIT 10, 20
That would select 10 records, starting from record 20, so that it returns records 20 - 30. This is convenient way to page data, without returning anymore rows than than you need.

However, MS SQL doesn't appear to support that syntax. What is the equivalent sql code to select any N rows from an arbitrary starting point, without having to create a stored procedure?

Thanks in advance :)

Help Convert MS Access Function To MS SQL User Defined Function

I have this function in access I need to be able to use in ms sql. Having problems trying to get it to work. The function gets rid of the leading zeros if the field being past dosn't have any non number characters.For example:TrimZero("000000001023") > "1023"TrimZero("E1025") > "E1025"TrimZero("000000021021") > "21021"TrimZero("R5545") > "R5545"Here is the function that works in access:Public Function TrimZero(strField As Variant) As String Dim strReturn As String If IsNull(strField) = True Then strReturn = "" Else strReturn = strField Do While Left(strReturn, 1) = "0" strReturn = Mid(strReturn, 2) Loop End If TrimZero = strReturnEnd Function

2 GIG Limit

Aug 6, 1998

When creating a database, SQL Server 6.5 seems to have a 2 gig limit. What I mean is that if the device chosen is over 2 gigs SQL Server displays the size of the device as anegative number. This prevents me from being able to expand the database when I need to. Can anyone tell me why this is so, and if there`s anyway around it??

4gb Limit

Mar 26, 2007

Hi There

I recently read up and found an msdn forum post that said the 4gb limit only applied to data files not log files.

However recently i had an error on a sql express database saying that the log file was full, the database log file was set to auto grow and there was plenty of space left.

So i am guessing the 4gb limit applies to any database file mdf or ldf, is this correct ?

Thanx

Pass Output Of A Function To Another Function As Input

Jan 7, 2014

I need to be able to pass the output of a function to another function as input, where all functions involved are user-defined in-line table-valued functions. I already posted this on Stack Exchange, so here is a link to the relevant code: [URL] ...

I am fairly certain OUTER APPLY is the core answer here; there's *clearly* some way in which does *not* do what I need, or I would not get the null output you see in the link, but it seems clear that there should be a way to fool it into working.

Using LIMIT And UNION Together

Mar 19, 2008

hi,i have a union statement that works like a charm:SELECT
[Name],
[EventID] AS [ItemID],
[TourID],
[Date],
NULL AS [StartDate],
[Date] AS [SortDate],
[Type] FROM [Events]
WHERE
[TourID] IS NULL
AND
AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel

UNION

SELECT
[Name],
[TourID] AS [ItemID],
[TourID],
NULL AS [Date],
[StartDate],
[StartDate] AS [SortDate],
'2' AS [Type]
FROM
[Tours]
WHERE
AccessLevel <= @AuthenticationLevel

ORDER BY
[SortDate] this statement selects all the records i want from both tables, and orders the entire new table by sort date.what i want to do is to add a limitation on the number of records. i have tried using both LIMIT and TOP commands, but i can't get it working. both of the below statements give me a syntax error saying "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ORDER'"first try:SELECT * FROM (<same_statement_as_above>) ORDER BY [SortDate] LIMIT 2second try:SELECT TOP 2 * FROM (<same_statement_as_above>) ORDER BY [SortDate]what am i doing wrong, and how do i achieve what i want?i am working with mssql server 2005 (express locally, and standard on my hosting service). thanks for your help!

Connections Limit?

Dec 27, 2004

Hi,

I have an application with a DAL that has an interface with SQL Server.
The application has 400 users that open the web forms.
My question is:
Is there a limit of the parallel connections that can be opened? Or the IIS is managing all the access to the DB? Should I worry about the performance Or it's normal behaviour for ASP.NET applications?

Thanks

Row Limit In MSSQL

Sep 8, 2004

There is at present (as we accidently found) limitation of MSSQL to return per row maximally 8060 bytes. Message like this comes: "Cannot create a row of size 8279 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060".
My questions are :
- Is there any way how to pass it? If I split into more tables (as I have it now) and ask for result where these tables are connected over any ID the result is the same. If I use stored procedures it seems to be ok. Any other idea?
- Will be this ok in SQL server 2005?

Using LIMIT And UNION Together

Jul 22, 2013

I have a extremely large table and out of that I just need 2 records but based on some logic . For example

IF EMPLOYEE_ADDRESS <> NULL
set Employee_HAS_HOME to 1
ELSE
set Employee_HAS_HOME to 0

Here I can not use just first 1000 records as I am not sure If I will cover the second condition in first 1000 rows . Then I came up with solution like : -

select * from employee_table where employee_address <> NULL LIMIT 1
UNION
select * from employee_table where employee_address = NULL LIMIT 1

And this will give me 2 records which I can use for my testing . But unfortunately this is not working.

Limit Problem

Nov 20, 2007

I have a table tblclients where all my client information is. In my application, I can assign a client to a therapist which is simply inserting the client id (intclientId) into the table with the inttherapistId and the authorid was completed the transaction. because we want to know the history of the transfers, I have to have a separate table other wise I could have just crated a field in the client table for the therapist id.

Simply enough.

The problem is when I assign the client to a therapist more than once, on the client log (the screen that shows all my clients) the client appears twice- once for each therapist he has been assigned to. I only want the client to appear once- and show the name of the latest therapist he has been assigned to not all the therapist. The way I did the select was to do an left outer join on the tbltransfer based on the client id. Works but like I said it gives me the client twice, if I assign them to the therapist more than once. So here is my statement:

select c.strfirstname, c.strlastname, c.intlocationId from tblclients c left outer tbltransfer t on t.intclientId = c.intclientId

this works, but if I have more than one record for the same client in the tbltranfer (if I assign the client more than once) then the recordset that is returned contains two records- one for each therapist assigned and that my problem.

Any help would be appreciated.
