Unfortunately it's not what I expect. Assume that I have an arbitrary
"SELECT expr1 as column1, expr2 as column2, ..." which gives

column1 | column2 | ...
--------+---------+- ...
......data..............
........................

I would like to get the same result with the only plus column row_no:

row_no | column1 | column2 | ...
-------+---------+---------+- ...
1 | ......data..............
2 | ........................
.................................

with a new SELECT statement: "SELECT ?????, expr1 as column1, expr2 as
column2, ...". What to write instead of ??????

TIA, Zoltan
