Is it possible to have an incrementing row count in my query that is not

If you _have_ to get this in your query I'd say you have a flaw in your logic somewhere. However, you can do it in MySQL using these two queries.


SELECT @a:=0;

SELECT @a:=@a+1, * FROM table;

This isn't very good SQL coding.

Sure it is. It's the question that's not very good.


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.
