I got (for now) the answer...
It sounds like you need to change the language used for collation. Documentation on how to do that
can be found at:

And my response is : <quote>

Yes, it seems like what I need.
But not clear to me !!!

In Oracle (that I know), for instance, you have variables like NLS_COLLATION that defines what kind of collation you are using.
In Cache you should have something like that, I mean independent of what you set-up on your database setup but dependent on language you are using.
I don't want ASCII sort but Dictionary sort.
On the same application if I set-up the language to be en_US the sort order can be diferent.
Of course it should meet my application preferences.


Resuming, I don't want to change the Globals sort order but it should meet my application/browser/anything preferences.

The Globals is the way Cache stores data (I don't need to "Know" that) I just want to know how to retreive it the way I need. (like $zd(+$h,4) the way I want the date format).

Is it possible ?

Yes !! The collation is what I meant !


The MDC was working on this before the big gulp 6+ years ago.



I forwarded this question to support and I'm still waiting for News.

I think you can be optimistic.

Collation Sequence -
Specifies the order in which Cache' retrieves global nodes, when it must retrieve nodes in order. A character set and a collation rule together make up a collation sequence.
Each global is associated with a particular collation sequence.
