I searched the internet and found an alternative answer that works
DECLARE @id INT
SET @id = 0
UPDATE mybase.dbo.invoices
SET @id = recnbr = @id + 1
GO
The above filled the recnbr column with a sequence of numbers starting
with 1 incrementing by 1, which was my purpose
Thnaks again

Subject: recno() function in t-sql
What is the equivalent of therecno() function in t-sql
I need to fill a column called recnbr with the record number of
each line
In VFP it would be:
update mytable set recnbr = recno()
But since there is no recno() function in t-sql, what would be a
replacement?
TIA
