SQL query How to get a specific number of records
I have a select statement retrieving about 1000 records I want to modify it to only return some records defined by @startIndex and @count for example: If I said @startIndex = 20 and @count = 20 the result would be: from the 21st record to 40th
I am trying to do this, but it takes the same time as if I got 1000 records
What is the best way to do this

This is usually called paging, there are many examples if you are using google to swap sql server like this MSDN blog post .
