hum, Regarding sortorder, yes you can use Right justification if the byte value of chars into codepage are ordered like the hebrew alphabet elsewhere you need to build a re-ordered string via subr!!
Like in french the chars "éèêàâ" are converted to "eeea" in a subr to make a correct sortorder. simple SUBROUTINE FLAT;FRENCH(RESULT,STRING) RESULT = STRING CONVERT CHAR(130):CHAR(136):CHAR(138) TO "EEE" IN RESULT RETURN Manu "Jacques G." <jacque...@yahoo.com> a écrit : Hello, Has anyone here ever used Universe with a Hebrew character set ? Is it neccessary to to with a full 16-bit Unicode character set or are there older 8-bit character sets that are useable ? Also since text is apparently read from right to left (like in arabic) how are sorts affected ? (Must dictionnary elements be changed from left justified to right justified ?)
