Case sensitive

Hi all, I'm using Thai_BIN collation for my database. When i build my SELECT
statement, i have to be case sensitive on the table name and field name. Is
there anywhere to ignore this so that i don't have to care about the case s
ensitivity? Is there any se
tting on the server that i can turn this off? Or is it a design by feature?On Tue, 16 Mar 2004 19:11:05 -0800, Loon wrote:

A binary sort order makes sorting and comparisons faster than any
other collation sequence can be, since SQL Server only has to compare
the byte values of the characters.
The drawback is that characters with different byte values (like 'A'
and 'a') compare unequal.
The only way to change collation sequence after installation is to
rebuild the master database and then recreate all your databases with
the new collation sequence. Refer to BOL for details.
