    Suppose you have a Czech_CI_AS collation set up as your DB / table collation. Then you do this:

    create table #t (string varchar (5))

    insert into #t (string) values ('ACH')

    insert into #t (string) values ('ACY')

    insert into #t (string) values ('AHHC')

    select string from #t

    where string COLLATE Czech_BIN like '%C%' -- will miss ACH

    drop table #t

    You are right, it works.

    Are you really doing it? I must say, sometimes I change collation from case-insensitive to case-sensitive, but I have never used BIN type collation yet.
