Can we create clustered index on non primary key column

Answer Posted / suraj

-- YES.

drop table Employees
create table Employees(
EmpID int Primary Key NonClustered,
[Name] varchar(20),
SSNo varchar(20) )

CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX ci_EMPLOYEES_SS ON EMPLOYEES (Name)

insert Employees values (101,'John','123-45-6789')
insert Employees values (102,'Mike','123-45-6789')


select * from Employees

-- We have to specifically define NonClustered in the
Primary Key column because Clustered Index is created by
default in Primary Key.
-- And, We are able to define Clustered Index in
another column because every table is eligible to have one
clustered index.
-- Clustered Index has to be created after table
creation.
-- From above example, EmpID doesn't take duplicates,
because it is primary key. But, SSNo takes duplicates.
