Write a sequence for your table . Then have default value as sequence .

So, whenever the column does not get users values , it will take the sequence values.

Im sorry, im a little confused at what you're getting at, but could you not just do an alter table?

ALTER TABLE my_table
 ADD row_number  int;

Make the Field DataType AutoNumber it will do it for you automatically.
