Hello,

I have a problem with an "insert into" and a collation conflict.
I created a T-sql script
>>>
use marval_Produktie
insert into dbo.CONTACT_DIVISION
([Name], Descrip, Fulong, SLA)
(select costcenter, definition, 0, costcenter
from server2.INT_COMMON.dbo.kpl
where parent = 'VVVVVV'
and costcenter <> '000000'
and costcenter not in
(select [Name] from dbo.CONTACT_DIVISION))
<<<
I run this on server 1 and i get the data from a database on server2
but SQL on server1 is the server collation Latin1_General_CI_AS
and on SQL on server2 is the server collation Latin1_General_BIN

I know that i can use the collate statment but, i just don't know how
i had to place COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS somware in the script, but i just forgot the correct way to do this.

Can someone help me?

Greetings

columnname COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS = someothercolumn COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS

If its a comparison I think you only need to put it in once? It then forces both sides to be that way about

If it is an assignment I put it on the right hand end - convert THAT side to be suitable for assignment.

Thanx all for your help.

i changed the script to
use marval_Produktie
insert into dbo.CONTACT_DIVISION
([Name], Descrip, Fulong, SLA)
(select costcenter, definition, 0, costcenter
from server2.INT_COMMON.dbo.kpl
where parent = 'VVVVVV'
and costcenter <> '000000'
and costcenter not in
(select [Name]collate Latin1_General_CI_AS from dbo.CONTACT_DIVISION))
;

and this did the trick.

So again thanx,

Greetings
