Hi 
 
i do not read your whole info but maybe you need to use case statement
 
e.g your 3 update statements can be changed fro:
 
Update table set prio = newprio(1) where id = 20;
Update table set prio = prio – 1 where prio < newprio;
Update table set prio = prio + 1 where prio > newprio;
 
to one:
 Update table set prio = CASE WHEN id = 20 THEN newprio(1) ELSE WHEN prio < 
newprio THEN prio – 1 ELSE WHEN prio > newprio THEN rio + 1 END ;

.. and can I order all active records completly?
 
(without a loop)
Update table set prio = 1 to n where prio is not null order by prio?

Okay,
 
I would simply change the prio new in steps of 10.
 
Also I can do the following:< /p>
 
Priority in steps of 1
 
ID 10 Prio 1
ID 20 Prio 2
ID 23 Prio 3
ID 11 Prio 4
 
Now the user can Set the ID 23 to Prio 2, how can I realize this without a loop?
 
Update table set prio = newprio(1) where id = 20;
Update table set prio = prio – 1 where prio < newprio;
Update table set prio = prio + 1 where prio > newprio;
 
..more simplier?

You example is confusing.
If a user can never change the position of Record 4 ahead of Record 3 (as is 
the case in your example) what purpose does priority serve.
If you had said that the outcome you wanted was:
Record 1 from 3 to 10
Record 2 from 10 to 20
Record 4 to 30 <-*********
Record 3 from 20 (should 15, Destination between record 2 and record 3)) to 40 
<-*********
Record 5 to 50
Then that would have made sense.
Please clarify, the problem domain does matter to the solution.
