RowIndex() odd(?) behaviour

[system]

It’s in the “Web Intelligence Formulas, Functions & Calculations” document, but it’s a bit opaque:

RowIndex
Description
Returns the number of a row
Function Group
Misc
Syntax
integer RowIndex()

Notes
• Row numbering starts at 0.
• RowIndex returns #MULTIVALUE when placed in a table header or footer.
Examples

RowIndex returns 0 when it appears on the first row of a table.

This topic addresses the difference between Rowindex and Linenumber a bit better:

Hi We have a table, in which we want to display the row number as a first column in a table. Tried using LineNumber() and rowindex() functions, but didn’t help. Appreciate your inputs. Thanks Ganesh gan_j (BOB member since 2007-02-19)
