• The collation (ASA_Label)
• Case sensitivity (Case)
• Blank padding (Blank Padding) if it was specified when the database was
created.
You can also see the collation of your current database by using the dbcollat
utility to write the collation into a file:
dbcollat -c " connection-string" filename
For example, you might extract the collation from the asiqdemo database as
follows:
dbcollat -c "uid=DBA;pwd=SQL;eng=myhost_asiqdemo"
demo_col
You can display the contents of filename from the File menu in dbisql.
To see details of any collation that exists on your system, use the -z option of
dbcollat . For example, to extract collation 850, you could enter:
dbcollat -c "uid=DBA;pwd=SQL;eng=myhost_asiqdemo" -z
850 demo_col
