The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation.

Asked by kinton in Databases Miscellaneous

Tags: collation, conflict, resolve, cannot, equal

Hi,

Can anyone tell me why I am getting the following error message and how to solve it for the SQL code below:

Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation.


As you can see, ContactId is the primary Key I always link back to.

Points worth noting.

All tables are in the same database
ContactId has the same field type, field length and collation type in all instances.
I am running this on SQL server 2000 in query analyzer



SELECT     (SELECT     COUNT(*)
                       FROM          tblcontactprofiles
                       WHERE      contactid = tblcontacts.contactid AND activestatus = 'A') AS Profiles, ISNULL(Surname, '') + ', ' + ISNULL(Title, '') + ' ' + ISNULL(Christian, '')
                      AS Contact, Surname AS Expr1,
                          (SELECT     MAX(contacttype)
                            FROM          tblcontacttypes
                            WHERE      contacttypeid = tblcontacts.contacttypeid) AS jobfunction,
                          (SELECT     MAX([emailaddress])
                            FROM          tblemailaddresses
                            WHERE      contactid = tblcontacts.contactid) AS email,
                          (SELECT     COUNT(*)
                            FROM          tblinvestmentplans
                            WHERE      contactid = tblcontacts.contactid) AS investmentplans, LEN(AdditionalResponsibilities) / 4 AS AdditionalContactTypes,
                      CustomerAccountNumber AS Expr2, *
FROM         dbo.tblContacts
WHERE     (EducationNumber = 3573)

thanks in advance
