Creating Database using T-SQL
CREATE DATABASE logical_database_name
ON PRIMARY (NAME = logical_file_name,
FILENAME = ' path\file_name',
SIZE = size,
MAXSIZE = maxsize,
FILEGROWTH = filegrowth_increment)
LOG ON
(NAME = logical_file_name,
FILENAME = ' path\file_name',
SIZE = size,
MAXSIZE = maxsize,
FILEGROWTH = filegrowth_increment)
Internet and XML support

Rich XML Support
 Query relational database with XPath
 Query relational database with SQL and return XML
results
 Update relational data as if it was XML
 Load huge XML files into existing SQL Server 2000
database, converting them to relational data
 Query your SQL Server via URLs from your Web
Browser of Web application
 Access SQL Server XML functionality via .NET
Managed Classes
Weakness
