Create table and Index

Hello,
I am using SQL server 2000 with SP4. I am running create table and index as
below
CREATE TABLE dbo.ttcmcs045777 (t_creg CHAR(3) NOT NULL,t_dsca CHAR(30) NOT
NULL,t_Refcntd INTEGER NOT NULL,t_Refcntu INTEGER NOT NULL) ON TEST
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX Ittcmcs045777_1a ON dbo.ttcmcs045777 (t_creg)
ON TEST1
I am trying to create table in TEST file group and Index in TEST1 file
group. But table and index are both getting created in TEST1 file group. If I
execute just Creat Table statement alone, then the table is getting created
in TEST file group, but if I execute both statements together, the table and
Index is getting created in TEST1.
Any help on this is really appreciated.
Thank you

What happens if you replace it with this?
CREATE TABLE dbo.ttcmcs045777 (t_creg CHAR(3) NOT NULL,t_dsca CHAR(30) NOT
NULL,t_Refcntd INTEGER NOT NULL,t_Refcntu INTEGER NOT NULL) ON TEST
GO
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX Ittcmcs045777_1a ON dbo.ttcmcs045777 (t_creg)
ON TEST1

|||A clustered index *is* the table (the leaf level of the index are the data pages). Hence, you cannot
separate a clustered index from the data pages, by definition.

Table data by default is stored in a heap structure (unsorted set of data
pages). When you create a clustered index on the table the data is copied
to a contiguous set of pages and physically sorted based on the clustered
index key. Hence you either have a heap structure for a table (INDID = 0
sysindexes) OR a clustered index (INDID = 1 sysindexes) but not both. So
your first statement does create the table ON TEST and your second statement
moves the data, sorts it ON TEST1. So if you want the data to be on TEST
use ON TEST in both statement conversely if you want the data to be on TEST1
use ON TEST! in both statements. That being said your nonclustered indexes
can exist on different filegroup than the clustered index (table).
