Other Western Europe Latin-based languages (i.e., “Latin-1” languages per
Windows) should also work, but have not been specifically tested. These include:
Afrikaans, Basque, Catalan, Danish, Dutch, Faeroese, Finnish, Galician (Spain),
Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Malay, Norwegian, Portuguese, Swahili, and
Swedish.

The SQL Server (or SQL Server 2005 Express Edition) database must be
configured to use a Collation type within the Windows Latin codepage of 1252.
(NOTE: If the DS2 database has any other collation type, it prevents the DS2
software from functioning properly.) The SQL Server (or SQL Server 2005
Express Edition) will automatically default to “collation type” within the proper
codepage of 1252 if installed under the Latin-based languages listed above.
Installing SQL Server under a non-Latin-based operating system may result in a
non-Latin collation type for the DS2 database. Database administrators also have
the ability to change a database’s collation type. Changing the collation type of
the DS2 database to anything other than a Latin collation type is not be supported.
