If you still want to go with what you already have, you should keep the lastItemKey and lastLocaltion values between requests, and your where clause should be something like:
WHERE (itemKey=:lastItemKey AND location>:lastLocation) OR (itemKey>:lastItemKey)
hope it helps.

Hi All! In one of my application, I would like to implement incremental fetching. The problem is that I would like to run it from a stateless application server, so I have to tell where to begin fetching data. It is simple for a table which has single column primary key, but causes difficulties (at least for me) in a more-column primary key.. Let say I have a table wich has the primary key: itemkey,location table1 ------ itemkey location ... -------- select * from table1 LIMIT x gives me the first x row of the result. After that, I save the last value, and next time, I adjust the query as select * from table1 where itemkey>:lastvalue LIMIT x that should be enough for an 'Item' table, but I have another column in the primary key. let say, I have the following in Table1: itemkey location ------------------------ 00001 00001 00001 00002 ... 00005 00001 00005 00002 00005 00003 <--- lets say this is the last value next time i want to run a query, which starts from 00005 00004 00006 00005 and so on.. How can I specify that in sql? I dont want to use cursor:), I would like to do it in plain sql. (It it is possible).
