Hi All


by using this query

"select * from sample order by newid()" im getting a set of rows. On refreshing this query i need the same set of rows to validate.(provided sufficient data in the table).

Please provide me the query to use for this

Let me get this straight:

- You want a random set of rows
- You want to re-run the query and get the same set of rows (not random)

Random <> Non-Random


Let's just say it doesn't make sense. Why do you want the same set again??
