How to do pagination in SQL Server 2008

You can use ROW_NUMBER():

Returns the sequential number of a row within a partition of a result set, starting at 1 for the first row in each partition.

Example:

WITH CTEResults AS
(
    SELECT IDColumn, SomeField, DateField, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY DateField) AS RowNum
    FROM MyTable
)

SELECT * 
FROM CTEResults
WHERE RowNum BETWEEN 10 AND 20;
