Remarks

When using SqlString comparison operators, note that if the LCIDs of arguments are different, comparison functions throw an exception because they cannot be compared. For example, the statement

SqlString mySqlString = new SqlString(“abc”);

is equivalent to

SqlString mySqlString = new SqlString(‘abc”, CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.LCID);
