You should also add , the case where filter is used and it uses clustered index seek

But then the video wouldn't be "What is a clustered index scan" any more. Still, the need for longer videos that offer methods for affecting execution plans is needed. The initial set of videos I recorded were meant to be short. They were supposed to simply explain individual operators, what causes them, what they do.

Not enough information. Maybe continue for some general recommendations on how to fix the problem

Lynn Rosini on 10/21/2008
It would have been helpful to show what you should do different if in this case a Clustered Index is a BAD thing.

John Moffett on 10/21/2008
You've shown a problem how would you fix it?

Will Summers on 10/21/2008
Too short. I was expecting some more details.

Rob Wingate on 10/21/2008
It would be nice to see examples of how to best fix this situation

needs the rest of the topic. What todo to correct the problem.

Andy Warren on 10/21/2008
Don't throw too many rocks at Grant, as he noted what we requested was a very short video to cover the very basics, then we'll be adding some more advanced videos that bring it together.

John O'Sullivan on 10/21/2008
very good - further explanantion of Clustered Index would have been helpful.

DavidB on 10/22/2008
Great job! You showed the problem and gave some ideas toward a solution. Thanks!

Carla Wilson on 10/22/2008
Way too short. Didn't explain WHAT a clustered index is, or how to fix the problem with the one in the example

James Mount on 10/23/2008
No solution provided to solve the problem!

Marc on 10/26/2008
Good tip. Would creating another index on the primary key that was not clustered fix this problem?

Mark Gelatt on 10/27/2008
good overview of why the query is bad, but we need to know how the index should have been to make it better.

very short video & lack of info. Thanks...
