Sure it works nicely, but if you have 1000 users pulling millions of rows each, that's going to put a large load on your server that really doesn't need to be there, not to mention network traffic if the DB server and CF server are separate. That's what I'm trying to avoid.

Select top 50 * from table Where id not in ( select top 199 id from table order by date, alpha) order by date, alpha that works but what if you are paging through a million records as suggested before? wouldnt the inner query select the top 999,999 rows? IE Select top 50 * from table Where id not in ( select top 999999 id from table order by date, alpha ) order by date, alpha I think thats what Mike K was talking about.
