Moin,
I prefer on application site to store cahr/varchar contents mime64 encoded,
due problems with non printable/control characters in such strings:
- - often sql-statements does not work in repmcli, if such a column contains \' or \" 
or \r or \n
- - dataextract and dataload does not work any more, if a \n \r is in the string
- - somewhhat script language php, perl, python, java quits on such strings also

As work arounf I use mime64 encoded strings to be stored in Sap-DB, this has the
benefits:
- - works, in any environments, due the critical chars are not disturbing anymore
this are the contras:
- - "order by" ist not usable
- - "index" is not mor sufficient

So it would be fine to have both combined.
If the SapDB kernel would know about mime64 it could be possible:
create table mime_example
(
id int default serial,
name char(40) mime64,
memo char(4096) mime64
primary key (id, name)
)
//

and this could work also:

select * from mime_example order by name
//


How about that ?
