RE: Why can a user create 249 non clustered indexes ov...

With a clustered index, Adaptive Server sorts rows on an ongoing basis so that their physical order is the same as their logical (indexed) order. Since we can maintain data in any one order only, there can be only one clustered index per table as against 249 non-clustered indexes.
