I'm dealing with a project that requires me to query a MS SQL Server. Not
a PostgreSQL issue I know but I want to ask if the LIMIT modifier is SQL
standard? MS SQL Server uses a TOP modifier.
select top 1 * from xxx;
Whereas all the SQL RDBMS' I've used before used
select * from xxx limit 1;
Any enlightenment is appreciated. (I'm putting notes in the code to
reflect the non-standard stuff I've had to deal with.)
TIA,
Rod
