我感兴趣的是从数据库表中选择第n行的一些(理想的)数据库不可知的方法。看看如何使用以下数据库的本机功能来实现这一点也很有趣:
SQL Server MySQL PostgreSQL SQLite 甲骨文
我目前正在SQL Server 2005中做以下事情，但我有兴趣看到其他更不可知论的方法:
WITH Ordered AS (
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY OrderID) AS RowNumber, OrderID, OrderDate
FROM Orders)
SELECT *
FROM Ordered
WHERE RowNumber = 1000000

如果你想查看本机功能: MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite和Oracle(基本上SQL Server似乎没有这个函数)，你实际上可以使用NTH_VALUE窗口函数。 Oracle来源:Oracle函数:NTH_VALUE
实际上，我已经在我们的Oracle DB中对此进行了一些实验，以比较第一行(排序后)和第二行(同样是排序后)。 代码看起来像这样(如果你不想去链接):
SELECT DISTINCT dept_id
, NTH_VALUE(salary,2) OVER (PARTITION BY dept_id ORDER BY salary DESC
RANGE BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING)
AS "SECOND HIGHEST"
, NTH_VALUE(salary,3) OVER (PARTITION BY dept_id ORDER BY salary DESC
RANGE BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING)
AS "THIRD HIGHEST"
FROM employees
WHERE dept_id in (10,20)
ORDER
BY dept_id;
我发现它很有趣，我希望他们能让我用它。

SQL 2005及以上版本内置了这个特性。使用ROW_NUMBER()函数。它非常适合浏览<< Prev和Next >>样式的网页:
语法:
SELECT
*
FROM
(
SELECT
ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY MyColumnToOrderBy) AS RowNum,
*
FROM
Table_1
) sub
WHERE
RowNum = 23
SQL SERVER
从顶部选择第n条记录
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
ID, NAME, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ID) AS ROW
FROM TABLE
) AS TMP
WHERE ROW = n
从底部选择第n条记录
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
ID, NAME, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ID DESC) AS ROW
FROM TABLE
) AS TMP
WHERE ROW = n
例如，如果你想在MSSQL中选择每10行，你可以使用;
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY ColumnName1 ASC) AS rownumber, ColumnName1, ColumnName2
FROM TableName
) AS foo
WHERE rownumber % 10 = 0
只要打开MOD，把10号换成任何你想要的数字。
下面是我最近为Oracle编写的一个sproc的通用版本，它允许动态分页/排序——HTH
-- p_LowerBound = first row # in the returned set; if second page of 10 rows,
-- this would be 11 (-1 for unbounded/not set)
-- p_UpperBound = last row # in the returned set; if second page of 10 rows,
-- this would be 20 (-1 for unbounded/not set)
OPEN o_Cursor FOR
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT
Column1,
Column2
rownum AS rn
FROM
(
SELECT
tbl.Column1,
tbl.column2
FROM MyTable tbl
WHERE
tbl.Column1 = p_PKParam OR
tbl.Column1 = -1
ORDER BY
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'A', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 1, Column1, 'X'),'X'),
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'D', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 1, Column1, 'X'),'X') DESC,
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'A', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 2, Column2, sysdate),sysdate),
DECODE(p_sortOrder, 'D', DECODE(p_sortColumn, 2, Column2, sysdate),sysdate) DESC
))
WHERE
(rn >= p_lowerBound OR p_lowerBound = -1) AND
(rn <= p_upperBound OR p_upperBound = -1);
SELECT * FROM emp a
WHERE n = (
SELECT COUNT( _rowid)
FROM emp b
WHERE a. _rowid >= b. _rowid
);
