However, the existing SQL server computers in your office are configured to use the
SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation.
You do not want to join tables in the inventory database with tables in other databases. You need to restore the inventory database to a SQL Server 2000 computer by using the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?
A．Use the rebuildm utility to rebuild the system database on an existing SQL server computer. Configure all the databases on that server to use the SQL_Latin1_General_CR437_BIN collation. Restore the inventory database to the server.
B．Restore the inventory database to an existing SQL server computer. Accept the SQL_Latin1_General_CR437_BIN collation for that database.
C．Install a new named instance of SQL Server 2000 on an existing SQL Server 2000 computer. Configure the named instance to use the SQL_Latin1_General_CR437_BIN collation. Restore the inventory database to the named instance.
D．Install SQL Server 2000 on a new computer. Configure the new server to use the SQL_Latin1_General_CR437_BIN collation. Restore the inventory database to the new server.
