In SQLite these can be combined into one query that gets the desired rows.
select * from mytable where Name >= (
select Name from mytable where Name < 'Sprenkle' order by Name
desc limit 1 offset 50) order by Name limit 101;
This query works as expected in SQLite so it should be a work around for
your union bug.
Very, very nice. The idea is right on! I made a tweak:
The query works well, except when searching names within the first 50,
i.e. if I search 'AAA', it doesn't bring anything. To fix it, I added a
"coalesce(x,'')", where x is the inner select:
select * from mytable where name >= Coalesce(
(select name from mytable where name < 'A'
order by name desc limit 1 offset 50)
,'')
order by name limit 101;
This works well on the full range.
Thanks all!
