    Sure.

    You ensure that every single piece of code that could ever possibly update the deleteflag of tablA also goes and updates the deleteflag of the other tables.

  • RE: Insert is Slow

    Then why the column can not be as cluster index?

    GUIDs certainly can be used as clustered indexes, nothing prevents that.

    Don't understand...

  • RE: Insert is Slow

    GUID ordering is not alphanumeric. There's articles on the web which describe how GUIDs are ordered, not that it usually matters much for users.

    The publisher is the database you're working with.

    i.e. the one you're trying to change the primary keys in. So you've already found it.

  • RE: how to alter the existing Primary key Non clustered index to Primary key Clustered Index

    The publisher is the database you're working with. As for changing the replication, go speak with the DBA/developer who set the replication up.

    If you want a list of the tables and their sizes, have a look at the sys.dm_db_partition_stats DMV.
