Ok it seems I can answer my question myself ... It's the UNIX-Style "order
by" which makes the difference here from ms-sql to postgresql ! ;o)
"select * from mytable order by lower(username)" does the job as wanted !
;o)

Hi!
Iam again having trouble with my postgresql ... when I do a
"select * from mytable order by username" then I get a result that's kinda
in the wrong order ...
It seems to make 2 different sorted blocks ... one starts with records that
start with "0...." sorted fom 0-Z and the other one comes directly after the
first one and starts with "_" again sorted from "_" - Z ... that is very odd
...
Does anyone have any idea what happened here ?! Any index or something i
have to recreate for the table ?!? I have 10293 in the table the column i
try to order by is varchar(255) and I use postgres 7.2.1 on RedHat Linux ...
i just "patched" the maximum arguments for functions to 64 instead of 16 ...
Greetings ... Manuel ...
