4. You are the administrator of a SQL Server 2000 computer. The server contains a database named Inventory. The database has a Parts table that has a field named InStock.hen parts are shipped, a table named PartsShipped is updated. When parts are received, a table named PartsReceived is updated. The relationship of these tables is shown in the exhibit. (Click the <<ItemExhibitName>> button.)
You want the database to update the InStock field automatically. What should you do?
A. Add triggers to the PartsShipped and the PartsReceived tables that update the InStock field in the Parts table.
B. Create a user-defined function that calculates current inventory by running aggregate queries on the PartsShipped and PartsReceived tables.
C. Use a view that creates an InStock field as part of an aggregate query.

Answer: A

5. You are the database administrator for a university. You are migrating a database from an old database management system to SQL Server 2000. You export student data from the database to a text file. All students have unique ID numbers. In the file, the student data is ordered according to these ID numbers.
On the server, you create a table named Students. You create indexes on the Students table as shown in the following output.
index_description index_keys
nonclustered lastName, firstName
clustered, unique, primary key studentID
You want to load the student data into the new database as quickly as possible by using the BULK INSERT statement. Which two actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
A. Specify an ORDER clause.Sort the student ID numbers in ascending order.
B. Specify an ORDER clause.Sort the student ID numbers in descending order.
C. Drop both indexes from the Students table before using the BULK INSERT statement.Re-create the indexes when the data load is complete.
D. Drop the nonclustered index from the Students table before using the BULK INSERT statement.Re-create the nonclustered index when the data load is complete.
E. Drop the clustered index from the Students table before using the BULK INSERT statement.Re-create the clustered index when the data load is complete.
Answer: AD
