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?
