MySQL Procedure To Get Incremental Numbers

<p>Fill it with some default values:
 
<pre language=">
 
Now lets say that you want to find the values in the table, but that you want to increment a value for each row, the following procedure will do this.  If you are using the MySQL Query browser then open a script table and past the following and execute, changing any database/table definitions.
 
 
 
The value that you pass to the procedure is used to work out the increment.  So in this case the output would be something like the following:
 
id  RunningSum
1   4
2   8
3   12
4   16
