Subject Re: Problem with COLLATE EN_UK
Author artlooksoftware
Two questions for you then:

1. Why does EN_US sort quite happily on commas and spaces while EN_UK
does not?
2. Can you point me to anywhere which might help with creating my own
collation order? I program in Delphi not C however.

Thanks.
