You beat me to it. Adding sequence numbers in PHP or PERL is almost too easy. It's when you get into making the DB do all the work that you run into trouble. Always remember that it's slower and more processor-intensive to do with the DB what could be done with a scripting language.

You have to have something to retrieve to the web page, like PHP, PERL, VBScript, etc. You can also do the counting there when outputting each row from the query results. HTH!
