Can there be constraints with the same name in a DB?

Question

This is a follow-on question from the one I asked here.

Can constraints in a DB have the same name?

Say I have:

CREATE TABLE Employer
(
    E         


        

Answer 1

The other answers are all good but I thought I'd add an answer to the question in the title, i.e., "can there be constraints with the same name in a DB?"

The answer for MS SQL Server is yes – but only so long as the constraints are in different schemas. Constraint names must be unique within a schema.
