Just a heads up for the developers/documentation developers. I did some googling on MaxDB + MAPCHAR in UNICODE databases and found many references on the mailing list (from Elke) indicating that this is basically not supported. I wanted to point out a documentation link that disagrees:

http://www.sapdb.org/7.4/htmhelp/be/a51a26c6cf11d5993e00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm

Or, at least it seems to disagree to me. I did verify, however, that in the DB Manager GUI, I cannot create a UNICODE MAPCHAR definition (unfortunately).

I looked into this because we have an application that is displaying German cities and �ttingen is being displayed at the very end of the list, because the column is (and needs to be) UNICODE.

It would certainly be nice to be able to address this efficiently at the DB level, w/o needing to add sort logic to the application.

Respectfully,
Brice Ruth
