I need to use a LIMIT count in a query but I also need to know how many rows the query itself would yield without the limit. I can do this inside a transaction like this
BEGIN SELECT COUNT(*) from table1 where blah; select * from table1 where blah LIMIT 1000; COMMIT Now I can give some feedback like your search matches 200,000 but was limited to 1000 items. Is there a better way to accomplish this goal? -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
