Line Numbers in SQL

Is there a function I can put into my select clause that tell me what the
line number of the row is?
i.e. in Oracle you can do something like (Been a year since I've used
Oracle)
select rownum, Field1, Field2
from blah
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.No, you could do something with a temp table and IDENTITY. I believe Yukon
has the rownumber function. What do you need it for?

That is what I'm looking up in that newsgroup. I can find the reporting
services newsgroup.

I use NNTP and searched and found it, this is the excerpt: (See below)
You will need to add an expression the outer most row grouping on the
matrix.
The attached sample report demonstrates how to do this.
Key Areas:
* Matrix Properties Dialog : Groups Tab : Country Group has an expression
on it
that controls the number of rows:
=System.Math.Ceiling(RowNumber(Nothing)/5)
* Place a PageBreakAtEnd on the Matrix Properties Dialog : Groups Tab :
Country Group.
NOTE: There is a bug on this dialog in RTM version. The checkboxes to
set
PageBreakAt[Start | End] are missing. You will need to hand edit the RDL
to get this
to work. Before proceeding backup your RDL. The code snippet shows where
the
PageBreakAtEnd tag was added to the RDL:
<Grouping Name="matrix1_Country">
<GroupExpressions>
<GroupExpression>=System.Math.Ceiling(RowNumber(Nothing)/5)</GroupExpression
>
</GroupExpressions>
<PageBreakAtEnd>true</PageBreakAtEnd> <<<<<< Tag added
here.
</Grouping>
