Hello all,

I can't seem to figure out a working SQL for the following condition, and I'm not sure if it's possible in SQL at all (but hope it is).

Let's say I have a simple schema:

CREATE TABLE MyTable ( ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, SomeData )

What I'd like to get is 5 records (for example) that are immediately before a given ID (where before means their ID is less than).

For example, with the sample data:

1, a
2, b
3, c
4, d
5, e
6, f
7, g
8, h

and the ID = 8, I'd like to get:

h, g, f, e, d

I'd appreciate any help on this!

Thank you in advance,

  Dennis
