Re: how can I show row # as the first field

I believe that it's because you are adding an additional column to the
result set. The query probably doesn't know what the * is referring too.
The table or everything in the select clause. Again that's just a guess.
But I do know that it's because you are adding an additional select that
is not apart of the original table(s).

Sweet - thanks!

Any idea why it requires "client.*" instead of simply "*"?
