RE: cannot import data manually on sql server 2005 because of collatio

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi Betty,
I understand that you could not upgrade your SQL Server 2000 database to
SQL Server 2005 due to the error "The LocaleID 1028 is not installed on
this system.".
If I have misunderstood, please let me know.

I think that the problem is that there is no language support for
Chinese_Taiwan on your server on which your SQL Server 2005 is running.
Your original collation of your SQL Server 2000 database is a Windows
collation, and this requires that the related language and locale must be
installed on your system. I recommend that you first install the language
collection via the following steps:
From Start menu, select Settings then Control Panel, start Regional
Options, click on Languages tab, in Supplemental language support box,
check the checkbox of the language collection "Install files for East
Asian languages" and then click OK. After this, additional files will be
copied to your machine. You may need to provide the Windows system CD or
the network share name. After reboot, support for new languages will become
available.

Regarding language collection and locale, you may refer to this article:
Windows XP/Server 2003 - List of Locale IDs, Input Locale, and Language
Collection
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx

Additionally if you have no need to use the collation
Chinese_Taiwan_Stroke_CI_AS for your database, I recommend that you change
the database collation to a common collation, such as Latin1_General. You
may also want the following references:

Hope this helps. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel
free to let me know.
