How to: Create an XML Index in Visual Basic .NET
This section describes how to create an XML index on an XML data type by using Visual Basic .NET.
The code example shows how to create an XML index on an XML data type. The XML data type is an XML schema collection called MySampleCollection, which is created in How to: Create an XML Schema in Visual Basic .NET. XML indexes have some restrictions, one of which is that it must be created on a table that already has a clustered, primary key.
Creating an XML Index
Start Visual Studio 2005.
From the File menu, select New Project. The New Project dialog box appears.
In the Project Types pane, select Visual Basic. In the Templates pane, select Console Application.
(Optional) In the Name box, type the name of the new application.
Click OK to load the Visual Basic console application template.
On the Project menu, select Add Reference item. The Add Reference dialog box appears. Select Browse and locate the SMO assemblies in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\SDK\Assemblies folder. Select the following files:
Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum.dll
On the View menu, click Code.-Or-Select the Module1.vb window to display the code window.
In the code, before any declarations, type the following Imports statements to qualify the types in the SMO namespace:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.CommonInsert the code that follows this procedure into the main program.
Run and build the application.

'Reference the AdventureWorks database.
Dim db As Database

'Define a Table object variable and add an XML type column.
Dim tb As Table

Dim col1 As Column
'This sample requires that an XML schema type called MySampleCollection exists on the database.

'Add another integer column that can be made into a unique, primary key.
tb.Columns.Add(col1)
Dim col2 As Column
col2 = New Column(tb, "Number", DataType.Int)
col2.Nullable = False
tb.Columns.Add(col2)
'Create the table of the instance of SQL Server.
tb.Create()
'Create a unique, clustered, primary key index on the integer column. This is required for an XML index.
Dim cp As Index
cp = New Index(tb, "clusprimindex")
cp.IsClustered = True
cp.IndexKeyType = IndexKeyType.DriPrimaryKey
Dim cpcol As IndexedColumn
cpcol = New IndexedColumn(cp, "Number", True)
cp.IndexedColumns.Add(cpcol)
cp.Create()
'Define and XML Index object variable by supplying the parent table and the XML index name arguments in the constructor.
Dim i As Index
i = New Index(tb, "xmlindex")
Dim ic As IndexedColumn
ic = New IndexedColumn(i, "XMLValue", True)
i.IndexedColumns.Add(ic)
'Create the XML index on the instance of SQL Server.
i.Create()
