RE: How to ensure order is kept in import from csv

  • Reply

Yes, the clustered index will ensure that the rows are physically ordered based on the columns you specify in the index.  Some things to bear in mind:  You can only have one clustered index per table (since it is determining the row order, it would not make sense that you can have more than one).  […]
