Collation Types

Jun 24, 2003

Hello, dear Friends!
My situation is a following:
I have some not big databases with only English data and some conteining data in Hebrew.
My question is: May I manage two collation types- meaning the database collation type will be for example some kind of Latin and some databases' collation will be in Hebrew.
If you have any experience of managing DB's in two absolutely different languages (Japanesse, Russian, Chinesse, Arabic with English) please tell me about it.
Best regards.
Marina.:rolleyes:

Restoring A SQL 2000 Db To SQL 2005 With Different Collation Types

Apr 27, 2007

Hello,



Is it possible to restore a SQL 2000 backup with Binary Order collation to a new SQL 2005 installation with Dictionary order, case-insensitive. Is this something I can do during the restore process or would I need to change it after?



Thanks in advance,

Buster

SQL Server 2005: Changing Latin1_General_BIN Collation To Latin1_General_CI_AS Collation

May 1, 2007

Hello,



I've restored a SQL Server 2000 database with a Latin1_General_BIN collation from a .dmp file to a SQL Server 2005 server with a default collation of SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. When I try to change the database collation I get hundreds of the following error:

The object 'CK_PM10200_GLPOSTD_00AF8CF' is dependent on database collation. So, in this case, is it even possible to change the collation if there are objects in the database that are dependent on it?



Thanks,

Bruce

Sql Types - Simple SQL Server Queries/handling Variable Types

May 26, 2005

SQL Server 2000, ASP.Net 1.1

I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the
conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data
to variables.

Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the
datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i
need my local variables to be one of the SQL types.  The problem
with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me
to be able to use a SQL type in my application.

For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates.  In order
to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve
them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date
in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a
string.  This seems to be very cumbersome.  Would I be better
off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring
Sql Types all together?

so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data?  with
the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work
manually?  I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my
issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some
direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's
got to be a better way...

Confused!

Thanks,
JJ

One Or More Columns Do Not Have Supported Data Types, Or Their Data Types Do Not Match.

Oct 20, 2007



Hi,

Im exporting an ms-excel file, then I use a lookup transformation to get a field from a SQL Server 2005 table. The Lookup transformation editor, after selecting the table, shows a warning that says:

at least one mapping between a column from available input columns ans a column from available lookup columns must be defined on the columns page.

So I try to make a relationship in the Lookup transformation editor's column tab where I find the Available input columns and the available lookup columns but I get the following error:

The following columns cannot be mapped:
[Department, DEP_CLEGALCODE]
One or more columns do not have supported data types, or their data types do not match.

The field in SLQ Server is varchar(10) and the input field is a derived column transformation; I have tried different Data Types but I always have the same error.

The DataFlow is: ExcelSource --> Derived Column --> Lookup --> Flat file destination

thanks.

Collation,

Mar 17, 2008

Hi:  
I have a website and related database in English version, now I am trying to start with other language, such as Chinese.
The first problem I am facing is: search a user name when user name is Chinese:
For example: English version: SELECT u_name FROM Users WHERE u_name = 'eric', it will return a value, but if I type: SELECT u_name FROM Users WHERE u_name = '艾瑞克', even if the table cell has the 艾瑞克 record, it won't return anything.
Search online, there are a lot of articles, since I am pretty new for this, can you let me know where to start? How to change the collation for the existing db, do I need to create stored procedure for the search?
I would like to solve this problem start from my MSsql 2005 database. If that works fine, then I will go to my web application.
Thanks a lot.
James

Collation Again...

Aug 16, 2007

Hi,

I am just trying to understand about how collation and unicode work in SQL Server. My database's collation is Latin1_General, and I set one column in one table to have collation Cyrillic_General.
Then in Windows PC where I am running an application that is connected to my database, I set Mongolian Language from Regional Settings. When I typed using Mongolian Keyboards and save the characters into database, then I can retrieve the cyrillic characters back into my application.
However, when I checked into database using Query Analyzer, those characters are saved in the column, that has collation Cyrillic_General and with nchar data type, apparently using codepage 1252, my database default codepage. My application and my database server are located in two different machines and I don't install Mongolian language in my database server. So that when other web application reads those characters from that column, even my browser has been set to use Cyrillic encoding, still it showed as characters from codepage 1252.

Could someone explain me what actually happens here?

Thanks very much before.

Nico.A.

Collation Problem

Jun 16, 2007

Hi,I have SQL Server 2005 database with SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation, and there is a little problem when inserting Cyrillic text. It works fine when I use SQL Server Management Studio to open specific table and insert new row manually. Problem appears when I use SQL queries. For example:  INSERT INTO Customer (ID, Name) VALUES (1, "Владимир"). ID is type of int, and Name is nvarchar.When I execute the query, value of ID is OK (it is 1), but insted of "Владимир" the value of Name is "????????" (only question marks).I am not sure now, if I should change database collation(and what to put), or I should change column type of "Name" column.

Which Collation Format Should I Use?

Jan 22, 2008

Which collation format should I use?
 SQL_Latin1_General_CI_AS, SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, or Latin1_General_CI_AS
I noticed that my development server has a different collation setting to the production server.
development. SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_ASproduction.  Latin1_General_CI_AS
Both these servers are SQL Server 2005 Express and I typically use varchar or text fields for storing the data.
I've been told that the difference between them is that the former uses code page 1252, as specified here: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/sbcs/1252.mspx
However when I compare that to, say, the page of symbols one gets using the 'Insert, Symbol' command via microsoft word I find quite a disagreement. It also differs from the 'View, Clip Library' list provided by TextPad.
The data in my database uses non-ASCII characters (or extended ASCII, if you prefer). The administrators of my CMS will sometimes copy and paste or write European spellings for company names etc. When they do that they're likely to resort to Word's Insert Symbol command. When I get this data and show it on a web page I want to specify utf-8 endcoding.
Which of these SQL server collations should I be using. I suspect that I should be using SQL_Latin1_General_CI_AS.  Essentially, I want the charater as seen in the textbox of the CMS to look identical to that displayed on a web page which has the following meta tag set: <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
The aforementioned CMS administrators are entering data on Windows XP PCs running asp.net. They may get the accented characters from several different sources (MS Word Insert Symbol or cut and paste from a web page), but they can agree with me that the symbol should display in the text box of the CMS identically to that on the web site.
Can someone put me right on this?

I tried re-installing the SQL and setting the default to CI_AI, but since the database that is backed up uses CI_AS, the DB settings overrides the default settings...

Any suggestions?

Collation Issue

Nov 13, 2002

I require the command syntax to return the collation properties for a database at table and column level in both SQL7 and in 2000 for an entire database.
Hopefully for all tables and for all columns in the db.
Does any one have the script for this command????
If you do let me know.
Problem as below.

On one server (ServerA) a query works. 2000 server that may have been upgraded from versions 6.5 - 7.0 - 2000
Collation = SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, Sort order=52
On server B the query doesn't work but has same Collation = SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, Sort order=52.
I restored the databases from Server A onto Server B and ran the same query and it fell over with this error message.

Server: Msg 451, Level 16, State 2, Procedure Bills, Line 3
Cannot resolve collation conflict for column 2 in CREATE VIEW statement.
Server: Msg 4413, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not use view or function 'Bills' because of binding errors.

Collation Error On DTS

Collation Settings

Jul 16, 2002

New SQL2000 installation into which I've copied data from multiple SQL7 installations. Some of the databases I've copied over from a SQL7 server with code page 850, sort order/collation 42, using the detach-copy mdf/ldf-attach procedure outlined elsewhere on this site (thank you). Other databases have been DTS'd from another SQL7 server with code page 850, sort order/collation 44.

In the end I want all databases to be in the default Latin1_General_CI_AI collation I've chosen for my installation.

I'm off to immerse myself in collation papers and alter database documentation from BOL, but was hoping someone could enlighten me in a less painful way.

Thanks,

Al

SQL Collation Problem

Dec 17, 2004

Hi all,

All my servers have a default collation of Latin1_General_CPI_CI_AS. Apart from one that is. It was rebuilt with the wrong collation of Latin1_General_CI_AS. This is causing problems with an application and the collation needs to be changed to be the same as all the other servers.

I know I could create scripts for all the objects, rebuild the master database, recreate the user databases and then create the objects and BCP all the data over, but this sounds a bit nasty.

Can anyone suggest a quicker and easier way to accomplish this?

thanks,
Lesley

P.S. The server that was wrongly built was done so before I started this job, honest.

Collation Conflict

Mar 2, 2006

Hi all,

I have a db server which was installed with Collation 'SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CS_AS' and now I have to replace this server with a new server and I want to install this server with Collation 'SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CI_AS'.

I am using Linked Servers to collect some data from my Sybase database which has "Code Page 850 (Multilingual) character set,us_english,Binary ordering, for use with Code Page 850 (cp850)."

But with new SQL server(case-insensitive settings), I am unable to run a select query (joining a local server and sybase server) and I get an error message "cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation"

I have tried changing property of linked server by specifying Remote server collation to true and Collation Name as 'SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CS_AS' as well as 'SQL_Latin_General_CP850_Bin' but I do get the same error message.

Could any of you please help me in this regard ?

Thanks in advance.

Wilson

Edit: Sorted out. Somehow it is working now after specifying Remote server collation to true and Collation Name as 'SQL_Latin_General_CP1_CS_AS'
