Answer 1

// First row = 1000
// Last row = 1009
// Total row = 1009 - 1000 + 1 = 10
// Restriction: exec sp_dboption 'DATABASE_NAME','select into/bulkcopy','true'
select TOP 1009 *, rownum=identity(10) 
into #people
from people 
where upper(surname) like 'B%'
select * from #people where rownum >= 1000
drop table #people
// It shoulde be better SQL-ANSI-2008 (but we have to wait):
// SELECT * FROM people
// where upper(surname) like 'B%'
//    OFFSET 1000 ROWS FETCH NEXT 10 ROWS ONLY
