What version of SQL Server are you using?

What are you actually trying to accomplish (aside from "utilize the row
id")?

Aaron,
you can do alot with it:
see the last record number;
do a loop, etc. It helps with coding process.



Hari,
Thank you for pointing out the article.

The concept of RowID doesn't exist in SQL Server. This is why we ask what it is you try to achieve.
