Re: [SQL] How to get last 10 rows in a table on a large database?

Hi.
You should try this:begin transaction;    declare tbl_cur cursor for select * from table order by datetime ASC;
fetchforward 10 in tbl_cur;end transaction;
 

This is true if you want THE LAST 10 rows from the selection - you order it
in reverse and get the first 10. You are unable to say:begin transaction;    declare tbl_cur cursor for .... .....
moveforward all in tbl_cur;    fetch backward 10 in tbl_cur;    ...........end transaction;
 
because when you "move forward all" the result gets lost.

If something is unclear, do write back...
