Hello,

I'm aware there is a row number function in SQL 2005 that I could use in a view and it would provide me with a column which would simply increment from 1 to x.

What would the equivalent code be in SQL 2000 ?
If it is even possible.

Thanks,

Yes, it is possible.

1) Use a correlated subquery
2) Use a temp table

E 12°55'05.63"
N 56°04'39.26"

Temp table -- Ok
How can we use a correlated subquery

Yes the Row Number is also generated by the method as Sodeep Sir Suggested But the Time Is Taken by the query is much more,,,,,
It fetch only 56113 records in 4:23 seconds.......
But It Is possible to use correlated queries to get the Row Number In Sql 2000

I Use same query as stated in Above Topic like this,,,,

SELECT custid,cust_firstname, fathername,
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM test25 e2 WHERE e2.custid <= e.custid) AS rownumber
FROM test25 e
ORDER BY custid
In which Custid is indexed as unique cluster

Thanks...

Also it works faster when we use this query without using the * order by * clause.......

if u use only this then ...

SELECT custid,cust_firstname, fathername,
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM test25 e2 WHERE e2.custid <= e.custid) AS rownumber
FROM test25 e

But Still it slow...
