Does anyone know how to go about selecting the prev/next record in the database?

For example I am at record #100. I process it.
Now I want to get record 99 and 101. Obviously if records nenver got deleted this would be simple. I need a sure fire way to get the Prev/Next Identity records.

Thanks,

Rob

How about this for the next one:

SELECT TOP 1 *
FROM TableName
WHERE RecNum > 100
Order By RecNum ASC

and this for the previous one:

SELECT TOP 1 *
FROM TableName
WHERE RecNum < 100
Order By RecNum DESC
