Subj:   How to get top N records
 
From:   Bhakti Ulhas Bongale

Hi,

Is there any function, other than ranking, by which I can select the top N records of a result set?

For e.g, if I have the following query:

     SELECT FIELD1,
     FIELD2,
     SUM(FIELD3)
     FROM MYTABLE1
     WHERE
     
     GROUP BY 1,2
     ORDER BY 1,2 ASC,3 DESC

This query returns me say 2000 rows. I want only the top 50 rows. Is there any function similar to ROWNUM in Oracle that will give me the expected result?


Regards,

Bhakti
