Yeah
SELECT TOP(100) * FROM POSTS ORDER BY DATEPOSTED
Is a relatively straight forward command to a database and hell, I'm guessing extremely readable by your average Joe.
If you’re talking SQL, it would be SELECT * FROM posts ORDER BY dateposted LIMIT 100.
There are a lot of flavors of SQL each with their own syntax. I've been using Microsoft's SQL now for 3 years and the syntax I used is correct for that.
