When creating a new database in SQL SERVER, there are many options.

alt text

Can any of you guys please help me in understanding all these options?

Any explanation/links/help well appreciated.

+3  A: 

The options are all documented on MSDN.

The documentation for CREATE DATABASE may shed some light on the immediate database options.

The documentation for SET lists all the database-level options that can be set.

Thanks for the link...I did saw it before posting the question but I'm still not sure if all of the options (shown in the image above) have been explained.. :-(

They're all in there - mostly in the documentation for SET. Remember that anything you can do in the management interface, you can do with a Transact-SQL statement.

The db creation options and their significance is discribed here. This is for SQL server 2005, a link provides options for 2008 on the same page. Hope that helps.
