Can someone point me to a tutorial on how to search against a SQL Server 2000 using a case insensitive search when SQL Server 2000 is a case sensitive installation?
thanks in advance.
Yesterday I received a response to my CI/CS Collation problem and therecommendation was to try and restore a CI Collation database to a CSCollation database. After creating a blank CS database a full restore(Force restore over existing database) does change the Collation toCI. I'm unsure as to how I can restore without changing theCollation. Any suggestions?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe need to install CI database on CS server, and there are some issueswith stored procedures.Database works and have CI collation (Polish_CI_AS). Server hascoresponding CS collation (Polish_CS_AS). Most queries and proceduresworks but some does not :-(We have table Customer which contains field CustomerID.Query "SELECT CUSTOMERID FROM CUSTOMER" works OK regardless ofcharacter case (we have table Customer not CUSTOMER)Following TSQL generate error message that must declare variable @id(in lowercase)DECLARE @ID INT (here @ID in uppercase)SELECT @id=CustomerID FROM Customer WHERE .... (here @id in lowercase)I know @ID is not equal to @id in CS, but database is CI and tablenames Customer and CUSTOMER both works. This does not work forvariables.I suppose it is tempdb collation problem (CS like a server collationis). I tried a property "Identifier Case Sensitivity" for myconnection, but it is read only and have value 8 (Mixed) by default -this is OK I think.DO I MISS SOMETHING ????

I am curious with using replication in sql server 2005 one way from db A (source) replicating to db B(destination) in which db A has a collation of CS and db B has a collation of CI. Will there be any problems with this scenario? Thanks in advance!
View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter all the pain I've been going through with code pages and collation, I was asked how, when sql server does it's joins and predicate searches, how does it actual (internals now) know the an "A" = "a" in an insensitive search?
I didn't have the answer.
Damn, Now I really have to pick up Kelans book.
Hi,
How do you do a case sensitive searching without having the database case sensitive or is this even possible. There are times we want to perform case sensitive searching and case insensitive searching.
I found this article, but is that the suggested way. seems a bit bad, but if it is the way I am willing to use it.

Dear SQL Experts,
Can I change an existing 2000 sql server to case-sensative?
Books on-line tell you how to create one during setup, but requirements around here dictate that I chage my existing setup.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I have a Users table with UserName and Password columns, in SQL Server 2005.
Currently the SQL Server is not set up to use case-sensitive criteria in the sprocs. How can I write my sproc to be case sensitive when searching on username and password?
I have already install my Microsoft SQL server 2000 as not casesensitive, how to I change it to be case sensitive?

I transferred data from Oracle to sql server 2005. Now what i want is to make data in the tables case-sensitive .(it has to be data inside the tables only and not table and column names).
what i tried is :
alter database test collate Latin1_General_CS_AS
But to my horror it made the tables name case-sensitive .
Plz help me out asap.
Thanx in advance

Is there an easy way to get the Lookup component to ignore case?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just been given a new SQL Server 2000 box to look after in production. I just tried to run a standard t-sql script I use for setting up backup jobs and so on. However, it failed with a long list of errors - quite a surprise at first since I have run the same script on many other servers wihtout a hitch. On close examination, the problem appears to be that the new serer is setup with a server default collation... Latin1_General_BIN (I think a binary based collation makes this a case sensitive server).
This is quite an urgenet one since I have to get this wrapped up today. I don't think I can change the server's default collation without a lot of red-tape. Is there a quick way to run my scripts in a 'case insenstive' context within Query Analyzer? If so, how?
Thanks in advance,

I have a set of data where a column contains titles which have been formatted as follows:
"FirstWordSecondWordThirdWord...." etc.
That is, all the words have been concatenated but can be visually separated by their capital first letters.
For reporting purposes, I need to break this column into the separate words so that it looks like:
"First Word Second Word Third Word...." etc.
how this can be achieved?
I have a table called SrcReg which is having a column name called IsSortSeqNo smallint. I am mapping this column in SSIS and the problem comes when I try to execute against different database which has this table but the column name as ISSortSeqNo. I mean both databases having same name but one with upper case. So SSIS fails executing due to meta validation issue.Is there any way to check whether the column name is in small case or upper case through query?

We have an in-house set of databases created by a member of staff who left the organisation in circumstances that mean he will not respond to queries relating to his work here. The programs he produced whilst in our employ are compiled and we have no access to the code, or the tools that he used (don't ask).
The programs allow the user to limit views based on various fields, but not the most useful field, a "memo" type field containing a textual description of work requests.
I only have Delphi 7 to use for the program development and have been using ADO, but my problem is I need to perform a case-insensitive search of a varchar(max) column based on text entered by user, but have been unsuccessful using LIKE and UPPER (which it appears you cannot use with a varchar).
Can anyone provide suggestions for what I am sure is a rather mundane and easy task for all of you.
Please note that I have only the Delphi, and no direct access to the SQL management tools.
Many thanks

Hi,
SELECT UserID, UserName, Password, PublisherID, CurrencyFROM [User]WHERE (Password = 'Anitha') I am using the above mentioned it is working but int the password field i had given it as anitha. Now the querry is retriving the record for anitha, it shouldnot happen. The querry should retrive the record of anitha only for where condition anitha and not for Anitha or ANITHA etc..
Thanks

Hi:

Hello Experts,
I tried to retreive an input column using GetVirtualInputColumnByName, to map it with output, it gave error. I found that it is because the value passed bstrName parameter was in different case. say for example in the column it is "ColNo1" where as in the GetVirtualInputColumnByName i used "Colno1".
Can anyone tell, Is there anyway to find the column in a case in-sensitive way?
Thanks.
Over the weekend I decided to give it the ability to do a case sensitive character swap. Updating the code was pretty straight forward but when I was through, I noticed that I was getting Cardinality Estimate warnings that I wasn't getting before.
Anyway, here is some test data and two versions of the executed SQL (the base code is all dynamic and the two code versions are the result of toggling the @MatchCase parameter).
/* ========================================
CREATE TABLE
======================================== */
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PersonInfoSmall](
[PersonID] [BIGINT] NOT NULL,
[FirstName] [NVARCHAR](50) NOT NULL,
[MiddleName] [NVARCHAR](50) NULL,
[LastName] [NVARCHAR](50) NOT NULL,
[code]....
If I make a search for instance
"Candy" in where statement I retrieve 12 hits however if I write "candy" I retrieve 0 hits.
Is it possible to make the database or table to be case insensitive?
I don't quite understand what I am asking for so hopefully this is enough to get an answer or some explanation.

View 2 Replies View RelatedDear everyone,
I am doing Login webform (C# .NET web application) with SQL Server 2000.
The staff table is to store authenticated user info.
But when I test it, I found that the password can be case insensitive, i.e. 'A0001' should be correct password, but 'a0001' can allow login.
Could anyone tell me how to solve this problem??
Thanks you very much!!
