Answer 1

The general approach is that, if you want only the nth row of m rows, use an appropriate where condition to only get that row.

If you need to get to a row and can't because no where criteria can get you there, your database has a serious design issue. It fails the first normal form, which states that "There's no top-to-bottom ordering to the rows."
