Oracle 版本 Release 10.2.0.4.0  系统平台 linux 5.0 企业版
以oracle自带的emp表为例
注意：如果装完后没有emp表，可以执行下面脚本安装
SQL> @/u02/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db2/rdbms/admin/utlsampl.sql
执行完后emp表就装上了，默认用户名和密码：scott/tiger.如果不知道密码可以更改
SQL> show user                                                       
USER is "SYS"
SQL> alter user scott identified by "123";
用户名为scott，密码为123
如果提示被锁，执行下面的命令
SQL>alter user scott account unlock;
SQL> conn scott/123
Connected.
SQL> desc emp;

以实现员工号empno分页显示为例，总共14行，一页5行，共3页。（几页自己定）
第一页：               第二页：               第三页：

1.显示第一页的内容：
SQL> select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=5) where rn>=1;                               
EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR  HIREDATE      SAL      COMM     DEPTNO         RN

2.显示第二页的内容                             
SQL> select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=10) where rn>=6;
EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE         SAL       COMM     DEPTNO         RN

7654 MARTIN     SALESMAN        7698 28-SEP-81       1250       1400         30         10
3.显示第三页内容
SQL> select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=14) where rn>=11;
EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE         SAL       COMM     DEPTNO         RN

这样就设置就达到了分三页显示内容的目的。一些论坛上和网站上的分页显示内容就是基于sql语句来实现的。
当然，其中的数字我们可以使用替代符&来替代，这样当我们执行语句的时候就不用一条一条的输入了，例如：
SQL> select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=&max) where rn>=&min;
Enter value for max: 10
Enter value for min: 6
old   1: select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=&max) where rn>=&min
new   1: select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=10) where rn>=6
EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE         SAL       COMM     DEPTNO         RN
---------- ---------- --------- ---------- --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------
7839 KING       PRESIDENT            17-NOV-81       5000                    10          6
7788 SCOTT      ANALYST         7566 19-APR-87       3000                    20          7
7782 CLARK      MANAGER         7839 09-JUN-81       2450                    10          8
7698 BLAKE      MANAGER         7839 01-MAY-81       2850                    30          9
7654 MARTIN     SALESMAN        7698 28-SEP-81       1250       1400         30         10
如果要执行第二条时，如下：
SQL> /
Enter value for max: 5
Enter value for min: 1
old   1: select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=&max) where rn>=&min
new   1: select * from (select a.*,rownum rn from (select * from emp order by empno desc) a  where rownum<=5) where rn>=1
EMPNO ENAME      JOB              MGR HIREDATE         SAL       COMM     DEPTNO         RN
---------- ---------- --------- ---------- --------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ------
7934 MILLER     CLERK           7782 23-JAN-82       1300                    10          1
7902 FORD       ANALYST         7566 03-DEC-81       3000                    20          2
7900 JAMES      CLERK           7698 03-DEC-81        950                    30          3
7876 ADAMS      CLERK           7788 23-MAY-87       1100                    20          4
7844 TURNER     SALESMAN        7698 08-SEP-81       1500          0         30          5
注意：上面的a为定义的别名，可以为任意字符,rn可以为任意字符
rownum为表中的一个伪字段，我们同样可以查询，例如
  
一个简单的分页显示就到这里了。
