| Hi,I need a way to get a row number in te query result.I have a temp table that is populated with data for a certain user. I cant use identity and truncate metod, becouse there can be many users using it and cause a big problem.So, the data, before insert, is being deleted for a certain user. Then the new data will bi inserted, and I need a row number.I'm using SQL2000 right now, so I cant use ROW_NUMBER() function.So what should I do, use trigger after insert or use #Temp with identity column, or is there another way. |

| Hi,Numbering is needed in the database, becouse the application depends on it.I have implemented a scenario with a #Temp table and identity column, for now. |
