| I suspect you are after one of two things:Either you mean the collation (e.g. whether foreign accents are grouped with the letters they are associated with, or come separately in "alphabetical order")Or you mean that when you Query data you want to change the Order the data appears - in which case add an ORDER BY clause to the end of your SELECT statement [note that there is NO implied order of data in a Relational Database, and even if the data comes back in a suitable order today it may not tomorrow - unless you put ORDER BY on your SELECT queries]Kristen |
