Adding Row Number to SQL SELECT result

This article will explain how we can add sequence row number to a SQL select query starting from 1 onwards. This can be achieved by using built in SQL function ROW_NUMBER(). This function simply generates row number for each row in the result. You can specify the partition and order by criteria. This is how it works..
..
Use of ROW_NUMBER() will assign sequence number to rows as:

SELECT ROW_NUMBER()
    OVER (ORDER BY EmployeeName) AS Row,
EmployeeId, EmployeeName, Salary
FROM Employees

Row   EmployeeId   EmployeeName     Salary
