George,

Oracle provides two psedocolumns ROWID and ROWNUM. ROWID returns the rowids of rows in a table. ROWNUM returns the row number of the rows in a query. ROWID is an 18-character string (somewhat cryptic) and ROWNUM is a sequential number. I think ROWNUM may be what you are looking for.

Hope this helps.

Charles J.
