UPDATE:
Running this:

 ALTER DATABASE "STRINGSDB.MDF"
    COLLATE Latin1_General_CS_AShere

Getting this error:

Msg 5030, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
The database could not be exclusively locked to perform the operation.
Msg 5072, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER DATABASE failed. The default collation of database ‘STRINGSDB.MDF’ cannot be set to Latin1_General_CS_AS.

I only have SQL server Management Studio accessing the DB.

ORIGINAL POST:

My SQLEE indicates a Collation of…
COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS

I am having problems finding the meaning of the CP1, does anyone know what this means?

I also ran…

select * from ::fn_helpcollations()

and the
SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS
doesn’t exist, also checked…
Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS

thanks for any help.
