I am not following your logic here.
What I am saying that if the attacker gets a row from the database that has the user's id, the password will be in a column labeled 'password'. Next column is likely to be the salt generated for that user's password, and let's say that this column name is 'salt'. With the salt and password for each user, you can run a dictionary across each combination at a furious rate.
