Can SQL Server SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS be safely converted to Latin1_General_CI_AS?

Question

We have a legacy database with some (older) columns using \"SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS\" and more recent changes have used \"Latin1_General_CI_AS\".

This is a pain

Answer 1

To do that go to properties of your data base and select options.

Then change the collection type to SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS.
