Subject Re: [firebird-support] Case sort order/collation order related?
Author Jorge Andrés Brugger
Arno:

Can I check the collation order ES_ES is somewhere? It´s 'fixable'? Or
even better, change the ISO8859_1 collation would be great, so I don
need to specify the collation in order by, group by, etc.

TIA
