# 4425 Migrating a Database from ElevateDB ANSI to Unicode Results in a Collation Error

We are trying to migrate from ElevateDB ANSI to Unicode. Since version 2.16 there is a migrator called EDB that will help in that migration.

When we run the following MIGRATE DATABASE statement from a Unicode session, we get the following error:

ElevateDB Error #700 An error was found in the statement at line 3 and column 29 (ElevateDB Error #401 The collation ANSI does not exist in the configuration EDBConfig)

   MIGRATE DATABASE FROM "EDB"
   USING
   "CharacterSet" = 'ANSI',
   "Collation" = 'UNI',
   "ConfigPath" = 'c:\ELEVATEBBDDansi',
   "Database" = 'DGFab',
   "LoginPassword" = 'EDBDefault',
   "LoginUser" = 'Administrator'
   WITH DATA



Comments Comments
The problem was introduced when the new built-in reverse-engineering functionality was added to EDB. The migrator was simply not setting the INFORMATION COLLATE clause in the right place before grabbing the SQL from the system information tables in the source system.
