  • Bummer, missed a point because I overthought the question, figuring something so simple had to be a trick question.

    I know of the AUTO_CREATE_STATISTICS settings. But this setting only affects creation of statistics for columns used in a predicate. When creating indexes, statistics will always be made, regardless of this setting. I though that this was the trick the author had in mind when asking the question.

    (note to self: Remember, sometimes a question that seems simple, IS in fact simple...)

  • Very bad choice of words there. True or false can't be good answer to an is it possible question.

  • Question reworded to better match the T/F answer
