ASA Database Administration Guide
International Languages and Character Sets
ISO_1 is provided for compatibility with the Adaptive Server Enterprise default ISO_1 collation. The differences are as follows:
The lower case letter sharp s (\xDF) sorts with the lower case s in Adaptive Server Anywhere, but after ss in Adaptive Server Enterprise.
The ligatures corresponding to AE and ae (\xC6 and \xE6) sort after A and a respectively in Adaptive Server Anywhere, but after AE and ae in Adaptive Server Enterprise.
This collation includes the euro currency symbol and several other characters (Z-with-caron and z-with-caron). This collation is recommended for Windows users using English or Western European languages.
The euro symbol sorts with the other currency symbols.
This collation is the same as ISO_1, but with sorting for values in the range A0-BF. For compatibility with Adaptive Server Enterprise, the ISO_1 collation has no characters for 0xA0-0xBF. However the ISO Latin 1 character set on which it is based does have characters in these positions. The ISO1LATIN1 collation reflects the characters in these positions.
If you are not concerned with Adaptive Server Enterprise compatibility, ISO1LATIN1 is generally recommended instead of ISO_1.
ISO1LATIN1 is recommended for UNIX users using English or Western European languages.
This collation is the same as ISO1LATIN1, but it includes the euro currency symbol and the other new characters included in the 1252LATIN1 collation.
If your machine uses the ISO Latin 9 character set, then you should use this collation.
