The closest I could make is   select   FROM  SELECT    ROW NUMBER   over  ORDER BY ID   as ct from  db   dbo   table    sub where ct  gt  fromNumber  and ct  lt   toNumber   Which I guess similar to select   from  db   dbo   table  LIMIT 0  10

For me the use of OFFSET and FETCH together was slow  so I used a combination of TOP and OFFSET like this  which was faster    SELECT TOP 20   FROM  SELECT columname1  columname2 FROM tablename     WHERE  lt conditions    gt  ORDER BY columname1 OFFSET 100 ROWS  aliasname   Note  If you use TOP and OFFSET together in the same query like   SELECT TOP 20 columname1  columname2 FROM tablename     WHERE  lt conditions    gt  ORDER BY columname1 OFFSET 100 ROWS   Then you get an error  so for use TOP and OFFSET together you need to separate it with a sub-query   And if you need to use SELECT DISTINCT then the query is like   SELECT TOP 20 FROM  SELECT DISTINCT columname1  columname2     WHERE  lt conditions    gt  ORDER BY columname1 OFFSET 100 ROWS  aliasname   Note  The use of SELECT ROW NUMBER with DISTINCT did not work for me

Since  I test more times this script more useful by 1 million records each page 100 records with pagination work faster my PC execute this script 0 sec while compare with mysql have own limit and offset about 4 5 sec to get the result    Someone may miss understanding Row Number   always sort by specific field  In case we need to define only row in sequence should use         ROW NUMBER   OVER  ORDER BY  SELECT NULL    SELECT TOP  LIMIT    FROM         SELECT TOP  LIMIT     OFFSET  ROW NUMBER   OVER  ORDER BY  SELECT NULL   AS ROW NO         FROM   TABLE NAME    XX WHERE ROW NO  gt   OFFSET    Explain          LIMIT   Number of records for each page  OFFSET   Number of skip records

Adding a slight variation on Aaronaught s solution  I typically parametrize page number   PageNum  and page size   PageSize   This way each page click event just sends in the requested page number along with a configurable page size   begin     with My CTE  as                SELECT col1                ROW NUMBER   OVER ORDER BY col1  AS row number      FROM           My Table      WHERE            lt  lt  lt whatever gt  gt  gt            select   from My CTE             WHERE RowNum BETWEEN   PageNum - 1      PageSize   1                                 AND  PageNum    PageSize  end

This feature is now made easy in SQL Server 2012  This is working from SQL Server 2012 onwards  Limit with offset to select 11 to 20 rows in SQL Server  SELECT email FROM emailTable  WHERE user id 3 ORDER BY Id OFFSET 10 ROWS FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY    ORDER BY  required OFFSET  optional number of skipped rows NEXT  required number of next rows  Reference  https   docs microsoft com en-us sql t-sql queries select-order-by-clause-transact-sql

You can use ROW NUMBER in a Common Table Expression to achieve this    WITH My CTE AS        SELECT           col1            col2            ROW NUMBER   OVER ORDER BY col1  AS row number      FROM           My Table      WHERE            lt  lt  lt whatever gt  gt  gt    SELECT      col1       col2 FROM      My CTE WHERE      row number BETWEEN  start row AND  end row

--  RowsPerPage  can be a fixed number and  PageNumber number can be passed  DECLARE  RowsPerPage INT   10   PageNumber INT   2  SELECT    FROM MemberEmployeeData  ORDER BY EmployeeNumber  OFFSET  PageNumber  RowsPerPage ROWS  FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY

In SQL server you would use TOP together with ROW NUMBER

The equivalent of LIMIT is SET ROWCOUNT  but if you want generic pagination it s better to write a query like this    WITH Results CTE AS       SELECT         Col1  Col2               ROW NUMBER   OVER  ORDER BY SortCol1  SortCol2       AS RowNum     FROM Table     WHERE  lt whatever gt    SELECT   FROM Results CTE WHERE RowNum  gt    Offset AND RowNum  lt   Offset    Limit   The advantage here is the parameterization of the offset and limit in case you decide to change your paging options  or allow the user to do so    Note  the  Offset parameter should use one-based indexing for this rather than the normal zero-based indexing

select top  LIMIT HERE    from         select    ROW NUMBER   over  order by  ORDER FIELD   as r n n        from  YOUR TABLES  where  OTHER OPTIONAL FILTERS    xx where r n n  gt   OFFSET HERE    A note  This solution will only work in SQL Server 2005 or above  since this was when ROW NUMBER   was implemented

Since nobody provided this code yet   SELECT TOP  limit f1  f2  f3    FROM t1 WHERE c1   v1  c2  gt  v2    AND     t1 id NOT IN          SELECT TOP  offset id          FROM t1          WHERE c1   v1  c2  gt  v2             ORDER BY o1  o2     ORDER BY o1  o2      Important points    ORDER BY must be identical  limit can be replaced with number of results to retrieve   offset is number of results to skip Please compare performance with previous solutions as they may be more efficient this solution duplicates where and order by clauses  and will provide incorrect results if they are out of sync on the other hand order by is there explicitly if that s what s needed

Specifically for SQL-SERVER you can achieve that in many different ways For given real example we took Customer table here   Example 1  With  SET ROWCOUNT   SET ROWCOUNT 10 SELECT CustomerID  CompanyName from Customers ORDER BY CompanyName   To return all rows  set ROWCOUNT to 0  SET ROWCOUNT 0   SELECT CustomerID  CompanyName from Customers     ORDER BY CompanyName   Example 2  With  ROW NUMBER and OVER   With Cust AS   SELECT CustomerID  CompanyName  ROW NUMBER   OVER  order by CompanyName  as RowNumber  FROM Customers   select   from Cust Where RowNumber Between 0 and 10   Example 3   With  OFFSET and FETCH   But with this  ORDER BY  is mandatory  SELECT CustomerID  CompanyName FROM Customers ORDER BY CompanyName OFFSET 0 ROWS FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY   Hope this helps you

Another sample    declare  limit int  declare  offset int  set  offset   2  set  limit   20  declare  count int declare  idxini int  declare  idxfim int  select  idxfim    offset    limit select  idxini    idxfim -   limit-1   WITH paging AS               SELECT               ROW NUMBER   OVER  order by object id  AS rowid            FROM              sys objects        select       from           select COUNT 1  as rowqtd from paging  qtd               paging      where          rowid between  idxini and  idxfim     order by          rowid
