Table Fragmentation level...

    All,

    I have a sql 2000 database with the latest service pack, and it has 9 .ndf files.

    The defragmention level is 33 % on average for more than half of the tables in that database. And the number of rows modified  since the last run of the optmization job is 0 for most of them but even then the fragmentation level is 33 %.

    Is this because we are using lot of ndf files ? or it is because lots of rows are being changed every day ?

    Thanks.

    I think it is mainly due to inserts, updates, and deletes. We have alot of modification on our databases so I have to run index defrag /re-index every week.

    I see that in our environment for tables will a small rowcount. Apparently if it only takes a fraction of a page it shows as fragmented.
