The following errors have been identified in the MCITP SQL Server 2005 Database Administration All-in-One Exam Guide (Exams 70-431, 70-443, & 70-444) (All-in-One) book. 

Page Correction
Page 74 70-431 question 1.  Answer D has been joined with question 2.  Answer D should read as:
D. Define the new column as NOT NULL with a default value of not Identified.
Page 78 Answer 3.  Incorrect answer given.  The correct answer is A. The four-part name is server.database.schema.object. We are accessing MCITP1 (the external server).
Page 172 First para should read as:
... The query hint is in bold and directs the Query Optimizer to use a clustered index scan. INDEX(0) forces a clustered index scan and INDEX(1) forces a clustered index scan or seek.
179 70-431 question 4. Correct answer is D, not B. As the explanation states, the problem is with the use of the alias.
229 70-443 question 2.  The correct answer is A, not B. As the explanation states, you need a DML trigger to identify when data is modifid.
272 70-431 question 3. The correct answer is B, not A. Since we're running the query on MCITP2, we need to configure MCITP1 as a linked server on MCITP2.
Page 445 Subscription paragraph. Replace last sentence with: Push subscriptions are initiated by the Publisher.
519 70-444 Question 2.  Answer D has been joined with question 3.  Answer D should read as:  
D. Back up the transaction log.
520 Question 3 answer.    Correct answer should be B, D, E not B, D, F.
Page 684 Insert after 3rd para in What You Can Expect section.
There are two things you can do to help you prepare for these simulations – do the exercises in the book, and watch the videos on the CD. These show you how to do certain tasks and allow you to put that knowledge into action.
Page 684 70-431 is no longer part of the MCITP: BI certification. Change fourth and fifth paras (including bullets) to read as:
The 70-431 exam is designed for professionals who are either working as, or pursuing careers as, database administrators or database developers. This is the first test in both the MCITP: Database Administrator and the MCITP Database Developer certifications on SQL Server 2005. Because of this, the 70-431 exam crosses the two different fields. You will see topics from both of these MCITP certifications, though not to the depth of the full MCITP certification.
