Does anyone know if there is a command in query analizer for sql server 2005 (Express) that changes the collation of all the char (varchar, nvarchar etc) in a table or in a database. And I don't mean to set the collation when creating a database, but to modify a database's collation seting.
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?
I am installing SQL 2005 on a cluster for the first time. All our other servers (SQL 2000) are set at collation:SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS I am installing SharePoint on a cluster and it needs to be: Case Insensitive, Accent Sensitive, Kana Sensitive and Width Sensitive I can't figure out which collation setting to choose? Can anyone help me out, please? Thanks in advance for your help /P
when I install SQL Server it uses a SQL collation (SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS), and i created a form haveing Arabic field names and every thing saved on my DB, when i call this field in my html page its look fine and visitor can read it , the problem when the clintes (visitors) fill this form and submit it, I can't read the information enterd in the text fields its shown like this (???????).
Thank you very much for your reply. I have one more question about collation. In my production server we have SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and on other server (from where i want to move database to prod server) the collation is Latin1_General_CI_AI . can i move the database form one server to another even if they have different collation. The both servers are sql server 2005 and the production server is standard edition and the other server is developer edition. I wanted to move the databases from developer edition. Could some body help me with this. Thank you very much.
I have a DB which has its collation set to SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and i need to change it to Latin1_General_CI_AS,
does anyone have any idea how to do this?
i have tried right clicking on the DB and changing its collation in the options tab, but this only changes what the default is, so all the old columns still have the old collatin,
Dear Members.. I am facing a problem with SQL server 2005 Secc. I have a Server with server collation Arabic_CI_AS. And i have a databse in it which has a collation SQL_Latin1_General_CP1256_CI_AS. The issue started with me when i am trying to create a Integrated seccuroty for some users in my firm. I have created a DatabaseRoll for in the database. There is no problem while creating it. I have added the user in the seccurity login on the server and then i added these users in the database Seccurity users. After that i applied the created roll to that users. It being created perfectly. But the issue is coming when i want to modify the seccurity policy (Seccurables) of any user from the database.

we have a problem with the collation of databases between sql server 7.0 and SQL SERVER 2005. The message that pops up is next:

A few collation questions on SQL Server 2005 SP2, which I'll call SQLS.The default collation for SQLS is apparently SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS.I wish to use a variation of this, SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AIcollation, but there is no such collation returned fromfn_helpcollations(). Also, if I try to use this collation ina CREATE DATABASE stmt, SQLS yells about it.I see that there is a Latin1_General_CS_AI. What effects are therein using this collation? The SQL_* collations are SQL collations,while non-SQL_* collations are Windows collations, yes? SQLS runsonly on Windows, so am I safe in using Latin1_General_CS_AI? Whatdoes the CP1 in the SQL collation signify? Am I asking for trouble?------------------------------------Assuming that I set Latin1_General_CS_AI (or any other case-sensitivecollation) at the database level, I believe my DDL/DML for that databasealso becomes case-sensitive. How can I specify that I want ONLY my dataaccess to be case-sensitive, and not my DDL/DML? I don't want to haveto remember to type "select * from MyCamelCase" when "mycamelcase"should work.Any help appreciated.A new SQLS DBA..aj
Our production sql 2000 systems have collation setting as "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS". The new production db server[sql 2005] has been installed and configured with "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" collation.
The issue is with the dev est servers. A few of them has been configured with collation "Latin1_General_CI_AS". Recently I have noticed a string comparison failed with collation related message due to the serverdb collation difference.
I have not come across any specific collation recommendation from Microsoft. Are there any specific recommendations from Msft on collation? I can forsee issues, if we have to perform any testsany feautre development on a production copy in dev est environments which involves string comparisons.
This issue is more important since we are on a Migration path which involves large some number of servers in dev est environments. My recommendation to the team at our place was to rebuild the already configured servers which has "Latin1_General_CI_AS" collation and change the server collation to "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS".
I would really appreciate if you could share your thoughts on this issue.
I'm in the process of migrating an existing sql server 2000 that currently has the following collation set / sort order : SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_CS_AS.
I would like to know what the corresponding collation set / sort order is for SQL Server 2005. Looking at the option when installing there doesn't seem to be an option for 850 multilingual and case sensitive and accent sensitive. This is when selecting SQL Collations 9used for compatability with previous version of SQL Server).
If I were to select Latin1_General and check the Case sensitive and Accent sensitive would this give me the desired results ?

Hi. Wondered if I might get a bit of advice on a minor collation problem I've experienced after migrating a database form SQL Server 2000 to 2005?
Users reported an error appearing in pages in a web-based application and I traced the problem to a stored procedure that was using a temporary table. I retained the original collation - SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS - after migration and the error showing up was 'Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and "Latin1_General_CI_AS" in the equal to operation.' This makes sense as I guess temporary tables are assuming tempdb's collation. Resolution in this case was fairly simple, which was to apply an explicit collation to one of the columns in the temporary table (it only had three columns, only one requiring the collation). However the longer-term question is should I: (a) resolve similar issues in the same way as and when they arise; (b) change the collation of the migrated database to that of the default for system and new databases under 2005 - i.e. Latin1_General_CI_AS; or (b) change the collation of tempdb and the other system databases to match that of the migrated databases (sounds risky)?
I would probably go for (a) or perhaps (b) but could use some expert advise on the matter.
I had an SQL 2000 database with Turkish collation. (Note: Default database collation was Latin)
Today i transfered data from that to SQL 2005 with Latin collation.
There is no problem with old data. I transfered them correctly. But when i insert/update at new database, Turkish characters change to Latin. (Like i->i, g->g)
When i put an N before the value, it works.
For example INSERT INTO T1 (A) VALUES (N'A')
Must i put N to all of them? I think not. What can be the solution?
Hi, I'm installing SQL Server 2005 on windows 2003 R2. Which Collation Designator is to be used so that the both English as well as Arabic characters can be stored simultaneously...? That is "The collation settings designator which support both Arabic as well as English character set"...
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?
We want to install 2 applications that run on SQL server 2005 but the requirement of database installation are different Collation setting ( One require Dictionary order, case-insensitive, for use with 1252 Character Set and other require Dictionary order, case-sensitive, for use with the 437 (US English) Character set). So the question here could I install both two applications successfully on same platform ? and if yes how?
I need a SQL Server 2005 SP2 instance with a collation of SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_BIN2. After installing SP2, the collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_BIN, and none of the patches I can find seem to want to work (they are all apparently written for SQL Server 2000).
I (absolute beginner) configured a distribution on a publisher wich acts as its own distributor.

But now I want to view the distributor properties and following message appears:

I am using SQL Server 2008. In ServerProperty function, there are two properties called “Collation” and “CollationID”. In some cases, I will only know the CollationID. Is it possible get the collation name from the CollationID? Is there a function called CollationNameFromID?

Scenario Recently moved a SQL2000 database to SQL2005. Collation on SQL 2000 database server was SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS Colaltion on SQL 2005 database server is Latin1_General_CI_AS
After restoring the SQL 2000 database on SQL 2005 we observed that the database collation was SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. We have altered the database collation to Latin1_General_CI_AS. We understand this will work for all new objects created on the database but existing objects (prior to the collation change) will continue to have the 'SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS' collation.
What is the best method to change the collation of the older columns to 'Latin1_General_CI_AS' - 1) Run ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN <colname> <datatype> COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS <nullability> on each varchar/char column
or
2) For each table BCP out data DROP TABLE RECREATE TABLE (taking the new collation Latin1_General_CI_AS) BCP in data
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
