I have a DBGrid that contains the results of a SQL query.  Can anyone tell
me how I can tell what the selected record number is?  I am trying to
display a message to the user saying: "Record # x of xxx".  I am using
RecordCount to get the "of xxx" part, and just need the first part to
complete it.

Thanks for the assistance.

Define a global variable HitNumber, initialise it to 1 and then
increment/decrement it in the OnClick event of a TDBNavigator. Something
like;

if Button = nbFirst then         {Move to first record in Query1}
    HitNumber := 1;
if Button = nbLast then          {Move to last record in Query1}
    HitNumber := Query1.RecordCount;
if Button = nbNext then          {Move to next record in Query1}
    Inc(HitNumber);
if Button = nbPrior then         {Move to previous record in Query1}
    Dec(HitNumber);
{Ensure that record at cursor is in range of all hits found}
if HitNumber < 1 then
    HitNumber := 1;
if HitNumber > Query1.RecordCount then
    HitNumber := Query1.RecordCount;
{Construct and display total number of results and position of cursor in
them}
Label1.Caption := IntToStr(HitNumber) + ' of ' +
IntToStr(Query1.RecordCount);
