sequential numbers added to null fields



This is a strange one. Would anyone know of a strategy for querying a
table, looking for nulls in a particular field, then filling those
with a sequential number starting at the one after the last number.
e.g.:

Mr. Cohen 03/15/56 13244355
Mr. Rocco 07/15/75 13244356
Mr. Rice 09/01/61 13244357
Mr. Peterson 02/10/78 13244358
Mr. Holister 06/20/64 13244359
Mr. Drake 05/31/65
Mr. Kellspan 01/12/71

Thus how to (in a long series of records), take the two shown with a
null value and update with starting with 13244360, then 13244361, etc?
The number BTW is not the key field.

Thanks! Dave
