From the docs: The LIMIT clause consists of two independent sub-clauses: LIMIT { count | ALL } OFFSET start count specifies the maximum number of rows to return, while start specifies the number of rows to skip before starting to return rows. When both are specified, start rows are skipped before starting to count the count rows to be returned. How do you skip -1 rows? -- select 'mmarques' || '@' || 'unl.edu.ar' AS email; --------------------------------------------------------- Martín Marqués | Programador, DBA Centro de Telemática | Administrador Universidad Nacional del Litoral --------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
