That won't limit the number of rows returned, it will just decrease the number of rows returned per fetch.

But you can limit the number of returned rows by setting the OCI buffer array size as well...as long as you're using F9 (run as statement).

Yes, the silliness is rampant. Can I assume the answer to the OP's original question is that TOAD has no utility for extracting a portion of a result set after the query has been run? You can only control that by limiting the return in your SQL.

The only kluge I can come up with is you let the query spool its initial 500 rows, start the extract, then cancel it. You will get more than 50 rows, but much fewer than the total result.

In which case, I can go even sillier and lees effient as well:

where mod(rownum) in (1,2, ..... 51)

Might as well read the whole table eh? ;-)
