Return records 5 thru 10

219 100+
I realize that mySQL uses the Limit 5,10 type functionality, but I need to retrieve only records 5 thru 10 in my query.

I'm assuming I need to use TOP....

I can do something like this, but I am not going to certainly get the records I need.
SELECT TOP 5 from TABLE order by FIELD DESC

I'm doing this to create some pagination on my web application search results.

Hey, Try this.

Select Top 5 from Table where Field In(select Top 10 Field from Table order by Field) order by Field Desc
