Hi, I am sure that 1) is correct, allthough I think I've overlooked 2)! pg_controldata reports: (last 2 rows) LC_COLLATE: en_US LC_CTYPE: en_US
Is it possible to change this after you've run initdb?

Any Ideas? 1. Does the locale you are using sort as you want? 2. Did you initdb with that locale set? (Use pg_controldata from contrib to see what locale the backend is using.) locale must be set correctly for initdb, to ensure that indexes don't get broken by changes of locale. -- Oliver Elphick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver GPG: 1024D/3E1D0C1C: CA12 09E0 E8D5 8870 5839 932A 614D 4C34 3E1D 0C1C "Why are you downcast, O my soul?
