Peter writes "I need to produce a query from a set of data that has an index on each row in the range 0..n. This recordset will be saved into a Stream to be persisted as XML so that a XSL style sheet can be applied to it. An example would be a table with columns A and B containing data. I want to make up a column C which holds a unique index starting at zero identifying each row.

A    B    "C"
aa bb 0
ab bc 1
ac bd 2
. . .
ay bz n


can it be done on the fly without hardcoding an index into the table or creating dummy tables or views?"
