Collate Table Record For Free

Collation allows users to specify language-specific rules for string comparison, such as rules for lettercase and accent marks. You can specify collation for a collection or a view, an index, or specific operations that support collation.

A collation specifies the bit patterns that represent each character in a dataset. Collations also determine the rules that sort and compare data. SQL Server supports storing objects that have different collations in a single database.

Server-level collation for Microsoft SQL Server If you don't choose a different collation, the server-level collation defaults to SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. The server collation is applied by default to all databases and database objects.

The collate clause is used for case sensitive and case insensitive searches in the columns of the SQL server. There are two types of collate clause present: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS for case sensitive. SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS for case insensitive.

A collation specifies the bit patterns that represent each character in a dataset. Collations also determine the rules that sort and compare data. SQL Server supports storing objects that have different collations in a single database.

You can specify collations for each character string column using the COLLATE clause of the CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE statement. You can also specify a collation when you create a table using SQL Server Management Studio. If you do not specify a collation, the column is assigned the default collation of the database.

The collate function is used to construct a hierarchical relationship between two groups that are not currently related hierarchically but which are instead related by ?foreign key? fields. One of the groups is considered the ?master? group and the other is considered the ?detail? group.

Collations in SQL Server provide sorting rules, case, and accent sensitivity properties for your data. Collations that are used with character data types, such as char and varchar, dictate the code page and corresponding characters that can be represented for that data type.

A collation in MySQL is a set of rules used to compare the characters in a specific character set. It is a sequence of orders to any particular set. MySQL supports various character sets, and each character set always uses one or more collation, at least one default collation.

You cannot change the collation of a column that is currently referenced by any one of the following: A computed column. An index. Distribution statistics, either generated automatically or by the CREATE STATISTICS statement.
