However, you can do it in MySQL using these two queries. SELECT @a:=0; SELECT @a:=@a+1, * FROM table;
If you use a database with sequences, built a temptable to put the data in temporarly, with an INT field at the begining, and a sequence to have the autoincremental. Very easy, and compatile with any relational DB. :-)Exactly. That's why I gave a solution for MySQL. -- ---John Holmes...
