Can we change the Colloation setting for an existing database?

same as the subject.
I have a database have a different collation setting from the temp db. In a
SP, I use a temp table, and later, I use the temp table to compare nvarchar
data with an physical table in the database, then I meet an error like that
Msg 446, Level 16 ...
Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation
I think I should change the collation setting of the database to the
collation of tempdb and master, but how can I change the collation setting?
I have read the BOL, but can't find a way to change the collation
Thanks a lot for helping
Pu,
Assuming you are talking w.r.t a SQL2000 database...
Refer 'ALTER DATABASE' in BooksOnLine and especially read the 'remarks'
section.
