select emp_id,emp_name, sal from employee a where &n = (select count(distinct(salary)) from employee b where a.sal <=b.sal)

&n=22 ( U will be asked to enter the number and then enter for which record u want to retrieve)

a.sal <=b.sal (this can be used to retrieve max record)

a.sal >=b.sal( this can be used to retrieve min record)

To find out the 22nd highest salary

use this query

select * from employee e1

where

        (select count(distinct(salary)) from employee e2

        where e2.salary>e1.salary) = (22-1)

"since there must only be 21 salaries above this"
