Hi!
I am in the university now, not be able to test what I
say, so please forgive me if it is buggy or wrong.
So does it helps you?:
CREATE SEQUENCE ordering;
SELECT NEXTVAL('ordering') as rownumber, *
INTO TABLE anewname FROM whatyouwant;
Probably CREATE SEQUENCE 'ordering';, do try it...
Am I right in assuming you were asking for
something like
SELECT Rownumbering(), ... FROM ORDER BY ;
and expecting a result like
1| ...
2| ...
3| ...
...
where Rownumbering() is a PostgreSQL function
If this is what you wanted, this is something
I want for a long time too.
Maybe we
If you want "the third maximum value", easist to do:
SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY whatever DESC OFFSET 2 LIMIT 1;

how can I number the result's lines of a sql query ?
explaination : I have a query which return me a list of values. I need
to order them (it's ok, easy ;) and then number the lines. The goal is
then to extract, for example, "the third maximum value".
Tx in advance !
