Okay, say I have a database with 10,000 entries in it. All entries have a unique id, but that ID is not exactly sequential (in fact, it's a 128-bit checksum).
Now, given that ID, I need to find out what row # in the grand scheme that it is. Let's take this test statement: SELECT * FROM auction ORDER BY lotnum ASC Is there any way I can add something to that, that might return what row# a certain item is, using a WHERE condition?
