Isn't this the English standard for collation? Or is this a non-c
locale as mentioned below? Is there anyway around this? LC_COLLATE = 'en_US.utf8'
Thanks
Pam

The collate setting is LC_COLLATE = 'English_United States.1252'

Usually the thing to ask at this point is "what's the database's
LC_COLLATE setting"? Non-C locales often have truly bizarre
sorting rules.
