hi
i have a db with hebrew collation.
i now want it to be cyrillic collation.
converting the db collation - wont help.
i tried exporting data to a blank DB created with cyrillic collation -
still, no good.
what is the best way of having a DB with a certain collation so no
matter the destination DB is, the collation of all columns will be
"database default"
thanks

Collations are defined a the column level. Create the tables with the
correct collation and then populate them. You can alter the existing
collation with an ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN statement but you first have
to drop any indexes on the columns and then re-create them afterwards.

I don't know exactly what you did, but presumably you used some export
wizard which performs too much things behind your back. Since I always
build my databases from scripts under version control, I have no idea
how these export wizard looks like.
If you don't have scripts under version control to build from your best
bet is probably to use the scripting facility in Enterprise Manager. I
don't think you can suppress generation of collation information there.
(You can in QA, but in QA you can only script one table at a time.)
However, once you have the script, you can open it an editor and to
a Replace All on "COLLATE Hebrew_CI_AI" to remove the collation information.
Then you can create the new database. If you need to copy data, you can
use INSERT/SELECT or bulk copy. In the latter case, be sure to export to
Unicode files.

Hi there,
I've been searching for about 6 hours to get a problem solved.
I installed MySQL 4.1.7 on the Debian web-server.
Normally this worked:

I need to migrate an application from SQL 7.0 to SQL 2000. I know
that they use different collations, and this causes problems when
7.0 applications are moved to 2000. I would like to find a
permanent fix (so I'm not happy with using "COLLATE" in future
stored procedures) and I'd like to keep the default 2000 collation
(Latin1_General_CI_AS) in order to avoid problems if the

I've stumbled across the above error and am a little stuck.
I've just installed SQL2000 (sp3) on my PC and restored a database from
our Live server. On a simple Update statement on a #temp table, it
fails with the above message. I think I understand what it means and
found some old posts suggesting using the following :

from master..sysdatabases
select serverproperty('collation')

Hi
When we installed SqlServer2000 we left the default collation name
(Sql_Latin1_General_CPI_CI_AS).
The user defined databases we created afterwards were defined with a
different collation name in order to be able to accept the character set
we use, Hebrew.
We are looking into switching DTSs that we use to copy data from our
main system , that uses an Ingres database, into OSQL scripts. Although
the DTSs successfully copy the Hebrew...

Hi there,
Is it posible to set the collation of SQL server 2005 like Oracle, which is
that objects names and column names are case-insensitive, but data is
sensitive;e.g:
In Oracle:
--create lower-case table and column name
create table t1(c1 char(10));
--Mike with upper-case J

Hello,
I have a problem. I've linked MySql server to MsSql, in MySql I have a
table with Latvian data(character set is ucs2, ucs2_general_ci) and
the problem is that when I use openquery to read data from MySQL
server, some characters are not translated correctly! I receive
question symbols instead of Latvian special characters.
Maybe someone had this kind of problem with collation?

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_AI
collation, but there is no such collation returned from
fn_helpcollations(). Also, if I try to use this collation in
a CREATE DATABASE stmt, SQLS yells about it.
I see that there is a Latin1_General_CS_AI. What effects are...
