Every decent API out there supports database independent way of restricting the size of the result set. For example in ActiveRecord in in Ruby on Rails you would do something like this Person.find(:all, :limit => 10) to return ten people records. In Java, when using JDBC you would set statement property MaxRows like so:
stmt.setMaxRows(10); String select = "SELECT * FROM MYTABLE"; java.sql.ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery(select); to achieve the same result. In ODBC, you would use SQLSetStmtOption to set SQL_ROWSET_SIZE to 10. Buy Toradol Without Prescription, As I said, most semi-modern data APIs provide a database independent way to limit the number of rows returned by a query.

So, the 3 ways to to return top 10 rows by an SQL query are:

use your DBMS's native SQL syntax. For DB2 it is SELECT column FROM table FETCH FIRST 10 ROWS ONLY

If working with DB2 v9.7.2 use SQL syntax of the database you are familiar with. For example, use MySQL SQL syntax SELECT column FROM table LIMIT 10

Use DBMS independent way to limit result set size provided by your favorite API

PS. I do realize that I did not demonstrate how to do TOP 10. Simply add appropriate ORDER BY clause to any of the statements mentioned to sort results according to the desired criteria. Limiting sorted results to 10 will give you TOP 10.
