Sql - updating multiple records with a sequential value

I am adding some new fields to a file. The file containts a master
contract#, contract# and (new) contract suffix

MASTER CONTRACT MASTER Flag SUFFIX
200300022 Y 00
200300022 200500120 N
200300022 200500121 N
200300022 200600124 N

I want to be able to update the suffix with 01, 02, 03, etc for each
master contract that matches a contract

So if mastflg = 'y', update suffix(incrementing value) where contract =
master

Can I do this with SQL? I'm not sure how to make the suffix field
increment.

Thanks

Mike
