Turkish character problem in select query - SQL Server

SELECT [ID]
  ,[Name]
  ,[Markup]
  ,[Status] FROM [dbxyz].[dbo].[Block] WHERE Name = 'Hakkımızda'

Linq2Sql sends this query to SQL Server 2005 but because of the character problem (ı) it does not get the right 开发者_StackOverflowdataset as a response. No rows returns.

I can not change the collation of database because it is a hosted service and I have no right to do so. I tried to change collation in column level but it did not work. What can I do?

Thanks

Is the column Block in the database declared with the proper collation? Introduce the Turkish I issue. Note that the collation must be declared even for Unicode Nchars.

I think I'm gonna use ExecuteQuery. ( Bad job! :( )
