List,
Following are two SQL statements. The first SQL statement works OK (where
ROWNUM < 5 is used). The second SQL statement does not return any rows
(where ROWNUM = 5 is used). This table contains 200 records.
First SQL statement
-------------------
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT PROCESSED_DATE
FROM TRADES WHERE PROCESSED_STATUS = 0
ORDER BY ENTRY_DATE)
WHERE ROWNUM < 5
Second SQL statement
--------------------
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT PROCESSED_DATE
FROM TRADES WHERE PROCESSED_STATUS = 0
ORDER BY ENTRY_DATE)
WHERE ROWNUM = 5
---------------
Question:
Why second SQL statement does not work?
I would be thankful for the clarification.
Thanks,
Rao
