Question on sql server certification

I am planning to certify on sql server 2000 and become an MCDBA. I am new to sql server certification track. My understanding is I need to take 4 exams(3 must and 1 optional). I have few questions:
1>> Can I take one exam and still be certified?
2>> When yukon certification track may come?
3>>Whats the sql server certification upgrade path? I mean if I am 2000 certified, how many exams I need to take to upgrade to yukon - the next version.
4>> Can you ssuggest some good materials,urls etc for 2000 certification.
Thx in advance

Yes, but not as MCDBA - just MCP (Microsoft Certified Professional).

> 2>> When yukon certification track may come?
> 3>>Whats the sql server certification upgrade path? I mean if I am 2000
certified, how many exams I need to take to upgrade to yukon - the next
version.
Both questions can't be answered at this time. You will have to wait, IMO,
for at least one year before we will ge more info.
