I havent seen the whole thread, but you can get only a portion of records
for any query by
specyfying fetchsize in JDBC. So if you talking about EJB, you can use BMP.

Sorting resultsets on the Java side means, I always need the complete
resultset. When I'm dealing with a certain amount of data I cannot fetch and
hold the complete resultset for performance an scalability reasons. I need
to get it piece by piece. I've missed a solution for that requirement  in
EJB1.1 and it seems that there is no solution in EJB2.0, too.
BTW, I faced this requirement in all my projects during the last 12 years.
