We know sql server creates a clustered index by default
when we create a primary key. If you create a PK first and
then try to assign a candidate key a clustered index then
it is not possible bcos sql server allows one clustered
index per table.
But...
If you make a candidate key a clustered index and then
define the primary key sql server doesnot create clustered
index for the Primary Key column.
So the answer is yes...you can create a clustered index on
non-pk column :D
