Hi People

I would like to get an sql statement that uses LIMIT and OFFSET and then sorts the results in ASC or DESC order through the user of ORDER BY, something like this:

SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 10 OFFSET 0 ORDER BY DESC

Note: that does not work so any ideas? I tried shuffling around order by to avial.

Thanks, Regards X

SELECT * FROM table order by 1 DESC LIMIT 10 OFFSET 0

order by goes before limit and offset. also, i'm using 1 for the first field.
