Answer 1

确定听起来不错...仅在删除与该客户关联的所有订单和所有订单项目时，或者仅在删除至少一项时，才设置删除标志。

Answer 2

Easiest way is EXISTS. I assume you want to check both Orders and OrderItems. This also means you only filter on CustID once.

UPDATE
   C
SET
   IsDeleted = 1
FROM
   Customers C
WHERE
   C.CustID = 2
   AND
   EXISTS (SELECT *
        FROM
            Orders O
        WHERE
            O.CustID = C.CustID AND O.IsDeleted = 1)
   AND
   EXISTS (SELECT *
        FROM
            Orders O
            JOIN
            OrderItems OI ON O.OrderID = OI.OrderID
        WHERE
            O.CustID = C.CustID AND OI.IsDeleted = 1)

You can make the use of Triggers on Table - Customers

You can get details about triggers :

• http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa258254%28SQL.80%29.aspx

With Trigger you can check the Value of Updated column and depending on it you can update the data of different tables.
