| Hi,I have been asked to write a report pulling data from 2 servers, only problem is that the Web Development Team have decided to go against policy and use a different collation on their server, does anyone know if and if so how I can write a query to join tables on 2 different servers using differnet correlations.Thanks,Gavin, |

An example:join ... on a.column = b.column collate SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

Or better:join ... on a.column COLLATE DATABASE_DEFAULT = b.column COLLATE DATABASE_DEFAULTThen it is using the database default collation from active database.
