Property name Description
CodePage Non-Unicode code page of the collation. This is the character set used for varchar data. See Appendix G DBCS/Unicode Mapping Tables and Appendix H Code Pages to translate these values, and to see their character mappings.

Base data type: int
LCID Windows locale ID of the collation. This is the culture used for sorting and comparison rules. See LCID Structure to translate these values (you will first need to convert to varbinary).

Base data type: int
ComparisonStyle Windows comparison style of the collation. Returns 0 for binary collations - both (_BIN) and (_BIN2) - as well as when all properties are sensitive - (_CS_AS_KS_WS) and (_CS_AS_KS_WS_SC) and (_CS_AS_KS_WS_VSS). Bitmask values:

Ignore case : 1

Ignore accent : 2

Ignore Kana : 65536

Ignore width : 131072

Note: the variation-selector-sensitive (_VSS) option is not represented in this value, even though it affects the comparison behavior.

Base data type: int
Version The version of the collation. Returns a value between 0 and 3.

Collations with "140" in the name return 3.

Collations with "100" in the name return 2.
