Min max from Dataset

I have a data set that I would like to get the min max for a column but only
from a range of records ie the 20th thru the 33rd record. Could someone point
me to some sytax to do this.

Thanks in advance - Dan

somthing like the below

select min(somecolumn), max(SomeColumn) from sometable (nolock)

where somecolumn >= somvalue and somecolumn <= somvalue

look at the Sql Between clause also

Sorry, could you elaborate on what you want to achieve?
If I understand correctly, you're trying to get the row that has the
minimum value for some column in a table, and the same thing for the
row that has the maximum value.
DaveL posted code to get the value from a SQL Server database, but you
have a dataset, so it's much different (and easier!)
I'll post some code ASAP.

Also, if you do it your own way, don't forget to cast the values to an
int, so that C# knows how to compare the values.

I'm assuming you mean DataTable, otherwise the question is not quite
clear.
If the values you want to compare are ints, something like this should
work:

for (int i = startIndex; i <= endIndex; i++)
{
int value = Convert.ToInt32(table.Rows[i].ItemArray[columnIndex]);

if (value highest)
{
highest = value;
}
else if (value < lowest)
{
lowest = value;
}
}
