hi,

i have a table consisting of 4 integers.

seq is for making the table ordered. (ORDER BY SEQ ASC)
a,b,c maybe null


 seq | a  | b  | c 
-----+----+----+---
   0 |  1 |  2 | 3
   1 |  1 |  2 |  
   2 |  5 |  7 |  
   3 | -2 | -4 |  


i am needing a sql statement to do

c=a+b+"the c of the row with seq one less than myself"

this statement has to run over the whole table, in seq order.


how can this be acomplished???


cu&thanks
erik
