ListCollations Method

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

TheListCollations method returns all valid Microsoft SQL Server collation names.

Syntax

object.ListCollations( )asNameList

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT ListCollations(LPSQLDMONAMELIST *ppNames);

Remarks

ListCollations is used in conjunction with column-level collation and is similar to the EnumCollations method. After using ListCollations to retrieve a list of collation names, an application can set the Collation property to use a specific collation with a Database2 or UserDefinedFunction object.

Note

If an application calls ListCollations on an instance of SQL Server version 7.0, the constant, SQLDMO_E_SQL80ONLY, and the message "This property or method requires Microsoft SQL Server 2000 or later" are returned.
