I have a table with names and some of the first names have accents. e.g. Jose. Now Jose has a access over the "e" in the database. How can I perform an access insentitive query to the database so if I type "Jose" without the accent over the "e" would return "Jose" with the accent over the "e".
This is kind of a big generic question, if anyone could even just point me to an article or white paper on this it would be helpful, but I can't find an answer. I do work for a international company that currently does all in english, but is looking to support more languages.
What exactly do the Accent and Kanatype Sensitivity tags in RDL refer to, and how would/when should they be used?
Hi,Does anyone have a function which replaces accent chars from a stringwith the non-accented equivalent? For example 'hôpital' should return'hopital'.Thank you in advance.
My SQL Server 2000 does not use the accent insensitive collation setting(collation containing _AI) in full-text serches:While SELECT * FROM <table> WHERE <column> LIKE '%a%' returns 'Mäuse',SELECT * FROM <table> WHERE CONTAINS(*, 'a') does not.Setting 'default full-text language' to neutral (0) does not help.How can I make full-text searches accent insensitive?Thanks for any ideas!Matthias
HiI have a script that uses bcp to import data from an ascii text fileinto SQL tables. The french characters are not copied properly. Theyare converted to letters of the alphabet. I tried to change all thefields to nvarchar instead of varchar and nchar instead of char, but Igot Greek characters instead.How can I fix this?Here is some code:--------------------------CREATE TABLE [dbo].[1_HLGT_HLT_COMP_f9.0] ([hlgt_code] [int] NOT NULL ,[hlt_code] [int] NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOPRINT 'HLGT_HLT'DECLARE @s as nvarchar(300)SET @s='bcp MedDRA..[1_hlgt_hlt_comp_f9.0] in ' + char(34) +'F:MedDRA9.0FrenchMedAsciihlgt_hlt.asc' + char(34) + ' -c -t' +char(34) + '$' + char(34) + ' -r$ -e' + char(34) +'F:MedDRA9.0Frenchlogshlgt_hlt.err.txt' + char(34) + ' -b250 -m50-SDEV -Usa -Ppassword -h' + char(34) + 'TABLOCK' + char(34)EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @s

I have french word like "Services d'organisation de minaires"..and i want to search word in SQL SERVER 2008. but the main problem is SQL SERVER give an Error because of string break.Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1 Incorrect syntax near 'organisation'.
I have a developer that would like to store a column of data in Spanish and another column of data in French. What collation should I set for each column?
This one has me scratching my head. We can install SQL Express on many different English OS without problems, but when we try it on a French OS it doesn't work. We have several French systems and SQL Express does not install on any of them. Even just running the SQLEXPR32.EXE without paramaters give the same error. We have yet to try it on other foreign OS. The command line we use to install is:

Our product ships with a bootstrapper that installs SQL Server 2005 silently for our clients - basically it's a pre-req which we load for them if it's not already installed.
The bootstrapper supplies the service account identity parameters for the SQL Server install command line in English. It supplies the local system account (NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM).
The problem occurs when we tried to install the product onto a French version of XP. We got the error message "SQL Server setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account."
Having read the page http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx#Localized_service_names we have discovered that the system account identity has a different name for French (AUTORITE NTSYSTEM) along with some other languages ... but we're not sure how to resolve the problem.
Can anyone out there tell me whether we ... 1) Can get the machine being installed on to tell us the local system account identity so we can substitute it into our command line in the bootstrapper? 2) Have to write a different bootstrapper for each language that names the local system account identity differently? 3) Have overlooked some other solution?
Also, does anyone know how many languages and which they are that give the local system account a name that's different to "NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM"??
Thanks, Sara
<EDIT>
Sorry, omitted a vital bit of information. The bootstrapper is written in C++. We know the .NET code to retrieve an NT account given a well known SID. Can we do the same in C++ somehow?? </EDIT>
We are using ReportServer URL Access. The parameters aren't pass into the URL, they have a default value and it's possible to change them by the "parameter toolbar". We are using datetime parameters with the very usefull calendar...
We are using a French version of : Windows (XP or W2K3), SQL2005+SP1 and VS2005 + SP1. It works fine, the calendar (for datetime parameter) is in French.
After installing the French SP2, the calendar is in English (w2k3 + VS2005 SP1). On a new installation (XP), with SQLExpress SP2 Advanced + Toolkit (in French), we have the same problem.
With this URL (solution 1), the calendar is in English (it was in French before the SP2):
