Hello, I use the following command "SELECT * FROM employees ORDER BY name" (a very simple sql statement) the main thing here is that I get a list ordered without taking into accound the spaces. For example, I get the following listing: ABAB AB CD ABD E AB EF and what I need is the following ("old fashion", that is, the "SPACE" is another character whose ASCII value is before any other LATIN letter's!!)
You'll want to read up on locales - you want the "C" locale. I'm afraid it'll mean dumping your database(s) and running initdb again.
