Assuming a supported version of the OS

You want to use the ROW_NUMBER() function. Part of the OLAP
expressions added at v5r4.

My SQL statement displays the results that I am looking, now I need to
display the "record number" of that line being displayed
for example
1       resulta
2       resultb
3       resultc
4       resultd
etc

However, my mind is just blank as to how to display the 1, 2, 3 etc

How can this be done?

As always, all replies much appreciated
