Well, I'm not Behdad, but I guess I have some answers. The first answer is: no, the Unicode Consortium doesn't provide any collation table for sorting. The second answer is: Yes, you can use the same table for searching. For example, you can use the data to ignore secondary and tertiary differences in you string comparison for a loose matching. But please note that the table is just there for the cases that you don't know anything about the locale. For Persian, the table needs to be tailored heavily. roozbeh _______________________________________________ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
