Can we create clustered index on non primary key column

Answer Posted / rima

NO.If the table has the primary key column, then by default
it will have a clustered index on that primary key
cloumn.So if you want to create a clustered index on non
primary key column then you have to create it before
setting a column as the primary key column or u have to
delete the clustered Primary key columns index to create a
new one.but it is recommended to have a clustered index on
primary key column.
