If there exist a index on the table, and we then make a
view on that table (include the indexed column from base
table) than why do we require indexing on view?Doesnt it
create an overhead?

Answer / sql2000
Lets start on what a view is, view is a name given to a
select statement. The select statement is executed when the
view name is called.
When you create index on the view the select statement is
materialized into a table and we have the contents of the
select statement as a table. This makes it faster at times
to run select statements on rather than the actual tables.
Hence it makes sense to create indexes on views.
Let me know if anyone has a better point of view on
this. :)

There is a trigger defined for INSERT operations on a table, in an OLTP system. The trigger is written to instantiate a COM object and pass the newly insterted rows to it for some custom processing. What do you think of this implementation? Can this be implemented better?
