• These two collations are effectively the same. They are both Case-insensitive, accent-sensitive, and have the same codepage, 1252.

    select collationproperty('SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS','CodePage')

    select COLLATIONPROPERTY('Latin1_General_CI_AS','CodePage')

    One is windows collation and one is SQL collation but I dont think one is more correct then the other unless your applications require it.
