Just had always assumed you could insert a row in the 
middle of the dataset. Kind of like altering the table you 
can insert a column at a given position. 
SQL datasets by definition have no natural order.  Therefore, the idea of 
inserting into the "middle" or even at the end of a table is meaningless.  
Don't count on any SQL database giving you back your data in any particular 
order (such as order entered) unless you specifically request that order using 
ORDER BY.  R:Base _generally_ gives you data back in as-entered order, but not 
always.  Other systems _never_ give you data back in as-entered order -- they 
often default to ordering by primary key value.
