Each
character set comes with one or more sort orders (collating sequences), which
are located in the sort-order definition files (.srt files).
These files accompany the character set definition files and can
be found in the same directory.
You can select a sort order for your data according to the needs at your site. The server can
support only one sort order at a time, so select one that works for all of your
clients.
Warning! Make
all changes to the default character set and sort order for a new Adaptive
Server before creating any user databases or making any changes
to the Sybase-supplied databases. Changing the character set and
sort order after data or data structures have been added to Adaptive
Server may cause incorrect behavior. To change the character set
or sort order after you have added data, see the System
Administration Guide: Volume 1.
