You'll need to create one.  For your sake, I hope that you created thetable with either a timestamp or a serial column
sothat you candetermin the sequence of records.
 

Since your problem is procedural rather than set-oriented in nature,you will have an easier time implementing it in a
proceduralinterfacelanguage (like Perl or C) than in SQL.
