Hi Oliveiros
Certainly! What you're looking for is the LIMIT...OFFSET syntax.
Some examples:
SELECT ... LIMIT 10 - return the first 10 records only.
SELECT ... LIMIT 10 OFFSET 10 - return 10 records, starting with record 11.
Manual page:

Andy

Dear List,
Is there any way to force a query to return just a few records?
For ex, returning just the first ten rows from a long ORDER BY query ?
And then, eventually, obtaining the remaining records at a later time,
or in background?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Best,
Oliveiros
