T-SQL: How do I create a unique key that is case sensitive?

Question

How do I create a unique constraint on a varchar field that is case sensitive (SQL Server 2005)?

Answer 1

This will change the column to be case sensitive. I don't think there's any change to your constraint...

Any selects or joins on this column will become case sensitive as a result of this operation.
