}

Property Value
A String containing the Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft Windows collation name.
Remarks
The CollationName property defines the character set and sort order for the instance database. The value must conform to the SQL Server nvarchar data type and must be the name of a valid Windows or SQL Server collation.
If you do not provide a collation name, the instance database collation is the same as the default collation of the Database Engine instance that hosts the database.
The collation of all instance databases in a Notification Services instance must match the collation of the application databases.
Example
The following examples show how to define the instance database collation:
idb.CollationName = "Latin1_General_CS_AS";
idb.CollationName = "Latin1_General_CS_AS"
Thread Safety
Any public static (Shared in Microsoft Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
