I don’t really work with MSSQL very much and was wondering how to do pagination similar to doing it in MySQL with the LIMIT command.  It’s MUCH harder in MSSQL, but here is how you do it:

SELECT * FROM
 (SELECT TOP [size_of_record_set] * FROM
 (SELECT TOP [end_record] * FROM [table] ORDER BY [field] ASC) AS tbl1 ORDER BY [field] DESC
 ) AS tbl2
