Phil,
Use this syntax in your mapbasic window substituting the table name
for <tablename> and the field name for <fieldname>.
Update <tablename> Set <fieldname> = rowid

Subject: MI PRO: Populating column with arbitrary numbers
Hi,
How do you populate a column with ascending integers (1, 2, 3 ...) ? I
guess it doesn't have to be ascending integers, just unique numbers (to
create an index column).
Thanks,
