Unicode Support l Uses the Unicode Support l Uses the "N" or national data types from the SQL-92 specification l NCHAR, NVARCHAR, NTEXT l What the SQL-99 spec says about Unicode l Interoperability with other clients 26 April 2001 Unicode and Collation Support in MS SQL Server, IUC 18 (Hong Kong)

Collation in SQL Server <= 6. 5 l No Unicode support at all l Collation in SQL Server <= 6. 5 l No Unicode support at all l One code page per server l One collation per server l No good solution for multilingual support 26 April 2001 Unicode and Collation Support in MS SQL Server, IUC 18 (Hong Kong)

Collation in SQL Server 7. 0 l Unicode datatypes supported l Two collations – Collation in SQL Server 7. 0 l Unicode datatypes supported l Two collations – Unicode – Non-Unicode l Number of collations distilled down to the minimum necessary l Collation independent of operating system 26 April 2001 Unicode and Collation Support in MS SQL Server, IUC 18 (Hong Kong)
