You only have to know the total number of record ,which I think you can easily get

SELECT id,lot_id,lot_type FROM scrap_table 
 ORDER BY id DESC limit TOT - 1932,10

at the present time I don't remember if ther is a way to do it directly from SQL, 
but I don't think it's such a great effort ^^

Re: Display information

2001-02-16 Thread Ron Beck

Hello all again.
I think I need to be a little more specific in describing my problem.
So, let me try again.  I have a database of scrap records.  There are
currently over 2000 records in this database.  I have a web page that
queries this database and displays the records in reverse order, newest
to oldest.  I use this query to do that...

SELECT id,lot_id,lot_type 
FROM scrap_table 
ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 0,10

which displays the last 10 records.  If I want the next 10 records, I
change the limit statement to look like this...

LIMIT 10,10

which starts at the 10th record recovered and displays another 10, again
from newest to oldest.  I have a button on my web page that increments
the number of records (LIMIT <##>,10) with each click on the "Pg Up" or
"Pg Dn" button.  Now, I don't want to page through eight or nine pages
to get down to the record I'm looking for.  I want to generate a query
to display a range of 10 records starting with my entry.  

Now, the following query will work...

SELECT id,lot FROM scrap_table 
WHERE id >=1880 and id <= 1890
ORDER BY id desc;

but I don't always have the starting record number to work with.  Now,
the following suggestion seemed promising...

SELECT id,lot_id,lot_type FROM scrap_table 
ORDER BY id limit 1932,10;

seemed promising but it put them in oldest-to-newest order (ascending),
not newest-to-oldest order (desc).  When the "desc" qualifier was added,
I got records 122 thru 113.  Again, not exactly what I was looking for.

What I was actually hoping for was something I could add to my original
SELECT statement to perform the task if someone entered the ID but would
show all (limit 10) if there was no entry.  And, I wanted to do it
without rewriting my code.  Unfortunately, it looks like I may have to
do a code rewrite for that section, which means documenting, testing,
acceptance...

Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions
Ron

Have a look in the manual, it says LIMIT [offset], rows, so you should say:

order by id limit 1932, 10;


SELECT [STRAIGHT_JOIN] [SQL_SMALL_RESULT] [SQL_BIG_RESULT] [HIGH_PRIORITY]
   [DISTINCT | DISTINCTROW | ALL]select_expression,...
[INTO OUTFILE 'file_name' export_options][FROM table_references
[WHERE where_definition][GROUP BY col_name,...]
[HAVING where_definition]
[ORDER BY {unsigned_integer | col_name | formula} [ASC | DESC] ,...]
[LIMIT [offset,] rows]

Tobias.

Hello all,
I have a database with a little over 2000 records.  I want to be able to
construct a query that says something like this...

select id,lot_id,lot_type from scrap_table
(part I need help with)
   order by id limit 10;

which should give me records 1932 - 1942 like this...

+--+--+--+
| id   | lot_id   | lot_type |
+--+--+--+
| 1942 | 0034906  | F|
| 1941 | 0100308  | F|
| 1940 | 0036309  | S|

Re: Display information

2001-02-16 Thread Peter Skipworth

isn't it as simple as...

 select id,lot_id,lot_type from scrap_table 
 where id >= 1932 and id <= 1942
order by id limit 10;

?

cheers,

If you simply needed the exact result here's the query

SELECT id,lot_id,lot_type FROM scrap_table WHERE
id BETWEEN 1932 AND 1942 
ORDER BY id DESC

select id,lot_id,lot_type from scrap_table where id >= 1932 order by id
limit 10;
select id,lot_id,lot_type from scrap_table order by id limit 1932,10;

either should work, i think the first would be faster but I'm not positive
how MySQL would handle the second in terms of optimization.
