You are accessing a SQL Server 7.0 or older, correct? Just install SP1 of RS
2000 and it will work.
The workaround for RS 2000 without SP1 is as follows:
Go to the "Data Options" tab of the "Dataset" dialog in report designer. On
the Data Options tab you will see that all settings contain "Auto" (and
report server would therefore try to auto-detect the collation settings from
the database server).
Replace the Auto-settings with the following settings (e.g. if your SQL 7.0
database collation is "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS"):
Collation = Latin1_General
Case sensitivity = false
Kanatype sensitivity = false
Width sensitivity = false
Accent sensitivity = true
