Hi,

I'm playing around with 9.1beta1 and would like to create a table where one 
column has a non-default collation.

But whatever I try, I can't find the correct name that I have to use.

My database is initialized as follows:

postgres=# select version();
                            version
----------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 9.1beta1, compiled by Visual C++ build 1500, 32-bit
(1 row)

postgres=# select name, setting
postgres-# from pg_settings
postgres-# where name in ('lc_collate', 'server_encoding', 'client_encoding');
      name       |       setting
-----------------+---------------------
 client_encoding | WIN1252
 lc_collate      | German_Germany.1252
 server_encoding | UTF8
(3 rows)


Now I'm trying to create a table where one column's collation is set to french:

create table foo (bar text collate "fr_FR")  -->  collation "fr_FR" for encoding 
"UTF8" does not exist
create table foo (bar text collate "fr_FR.1252")  -->  collation "fr_FR" for encoding 
"UTF8" does not exist
create table foo (bar text collate "fr_FR.UTF8")  -->  collation "fr_FR" for encoding 
"UTF8" does not exist
create table foo (bar text collate "French_France.1252") --> collation 
"French_France.1252" for encoding "UTF8" does not exist

So, how do I specify the collation there?

And is there a command to show me all available collations that I can use?

Thanks
Thomas
