How to find row number of a record?

Question

Consider example table below

ProductDetailNo    ProductDescription
      224                Apples
      225                Tomatoes
      226                Potatoes

How do I list the row number for a selected row like below ?

RowNo    ProductDetailNo          Product Description
  2         225                Tomatoes

Using row_number() in my query just returns 1 always for a single record no mater what the logical row is in the database.

Thanks, Damien.
