Hi, I'm trying to create a query to return me 3 random rows from a table. Obviously, I can set up my query like this: <framework:entity-query name="randomPageImagesSmall"> | <framework:ejbql>from PageImage</framework:ejbql> | <framework:order>RAND()</framework:order> | </framework:entity-query> and then just take the first 3 records.. but what I'd like to do is just return 3 rows (i.e. analagous to SQL: LIMIT 3), as this saves reading the whole lot from the DB.. any advice greatly appreciated. cheers phil View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4091074#...
