Hi!

I am writing an application in C#, using SQL Server, that needs to do a query on a huge table. I can get up to a million entries. I am looking for a solution that does the following:

1- SELECT the rows that can fit in my current application page plus a couple more. Let's say, 50 items.

2- When the user scrolls down the page, when I get to the event meaning that I need more results, I get the 50 next, and so on.

I know that there is no "rowid" in SQL server, which would have been very helpful. I also know that I can use an offset, meaning that I would select the 50 first. Then the 100 hundred first to show the 50 next and so on.

Can anybody help me with a clean solution to this? Does SQL Server offer any facilities to do this?

I am using SQL Server 2000, developper edition.

Thanks!

Huck
