I'm not sure you can, especially because iterators on Vectors are not gaurenteed to operate in any special order. If possible you should use an ArrayList or LinkedList. In this case you will be able to find the index or even ask for items by their index.
While order is not guuranteed, you can actually loop over a Vector using a for loop and the Vector elementAt(int index) method. Besides, if you create a [Array|Linked]List from the Vector, you would get the same order. If you want to use an Iterator, Vector implements the iterator() method as well.
The only difference between Vector and ArrayList is that Vector is synchronized (threadsafe) and ArrayList is not.
