Hi all
I would like to know the order in which the records are saved in a table. I am a beginner in SQL, in Oracle we have the ROWNUM to retrive the same. Any option for this in SQL Server???

There is no consistent way to get the order of records in DB (unless you are using a clustered index for the table and select rows with "order by" clustered index).
Nevertheless, in SQL Server 2005 there is a great ROW_NUMBER ranking function that allows you to enumerate resulting rows over some order. Simplest example: - create table #table(ID int identity(1,1), Name nvarchar(100))
-
insert #table (Name) values ('Peter')
-
insert #table (Name) values ('Andreas')
-
insert #table (Name) values ('George')
-
insert #table (Name) values ('Met')
-
insert #table (Name) values ('Jack')
-
-
select AlphebeticNameOrder = row_number() over (order by Name), *
-
from #table
-
order by ID

I changed above code a bit to convert it to MSSQL
[PHP]create table #table(ID int identity(1,1), Name nvarchar(100))
go
insert #table (Name) values ('Peter')
insert #table (Name) values ('Andreas')
insert #table (Name) values ('George')
insert #table (Name) values ('Met')
insert #table (Name) values ('Jack')
select IDENTITY(int, 1,1) AS ID_Num, name into #numbered_rows from #table order by name
select * from #numbered_rows[/PHP]

My code is MSSQL :). But only for 2005 version of MS SQL Server.

consider the following queries that deals with report pagination
a ) select MYROWS.* from
(select * from TABLE_NAME) MY_ROWS where rownum between 1 and 100
b) select * from TABLE_NAME where rownum between 1 and 100
My question : Does oracle optimize the first query so that it is not
significantly different (on execution time) when compared to the
second query ?
