I am moving data from one SQL Server to another. lets call them source and destination SQL server.
The source SQL Server has collation SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and the destination has collation Hebrew_CI_AS.
The destination's SQL Server's tables and their columns have collations SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS – which is good.
I asked source SQL Server to generate script for moving some tables. When I run that script on the destination SQL Server I get an error:
Cannot resolve the collation conflict between
"SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and "Hebrew_CI_AS" in the equal to
operation.
Why is it that the collation Hebrew_CI_AS is used (SQL Server Collation) and not the collation of the column?
Thanks

would this script use a temporary table? Then the table will have the server default collation.
If it just a quick one-time solution, then I would modify the source query to provide the data in the correct collation, here Hebrew_CI_AS
