Hi, Mohammad

I have replied to this on Delphi_programmer Group. Here is my response
again.

My problem was similar in that I wanted to sort records ignoring case, marks
and accents (for example E,,?,?,E,E,E,E,e,e,e,e,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,e,e,e,e and
e are equivalent for the sort). The method was to create a sort key field in
a single case without accents and to sort on that field. An example would
be:

ARRETE
CAFE
ROLE


Another problem we have is that surnames starting with Mc or Mac are treated
the same. So, for example, all these names are equivalent:


MacDonald
McDonald
Macdonald


This new field must be in the database and cannot be created at runtime. It
makes the database larger, but it will solve your problem.
