It seems that ß=ss in SQL. I need to be able to distinguish on a strict charcter equivalent basis.
i.e. SELECT * from table WHERE name LIKE '%ß%'
yields
Brian Bruß Steven Sossmix
etc..
I’ve looked at different Collations to see if there is one that ignores character expansions, but no luck so far.
Database has Latin1_General_CI_AS as default – I’ve also tried Latin1_General_CS_AS and Latin1_General_CS_AS_WS, neither of which worked.
Any help would be appreciated.
You need to use a binary collation so that it’s case-sensitive, accent-sensitive, etc.
Collation:
SQL_Latin1_General_Cp437_BIN
