I have an Sql2k database with SQL Server Sort Order 185 on Code Page 1252
for non-Unicode Data
Now customers from latvia needs to use this database concurrently , is it
possible to convert the tables to Unicode when it is already running live?
Best regards

You will have to change all varchars to nvarchars. You will need to
check that no string is bigger than 4000 chars and that you don't
violate the 8060 byte max rowsize.
Changing the values via alter column may cause problems too.
You can chnage the collation via alter database.

a lot for Tom and Dan=2E I have changed the partition tables= divided by month, and
created the table with CHECK constraint=2E My script only= references V_use once
per query, and, even as simple as 'select * from v_use where= transdate between
@.d1 and @.d2' will call every base table, although most of them= only takes 1%~2%
total cost=2E Thanks again=2E
