I meant that the order quantity was over 1000, not the number of pieces of data.

Perhaps I have a system which has users who record what films/movies they see and the system keeps an up-to-date list of all movies as they are released. What if the user wants to see a list of all the movies which came out last month which they *haven't* seen. Is there a way to do that? I can see from your answer before that I can limit the list to ones which the user has added to their list of viewed films, but is it possible to get the complimentary data set?
