Enabling or disabling localized sorting

Use the ObjectServer property Store.LocalizedSort to enable or disable localized sorting. Localized sorting is disabled by default for optimal system performance.

About this task

The Store.LocalizedSort ObjectServer property either enables you to perform standard C library string comparisons (the default), or enables localized sorting. When localized sorting is enabled, you can additionally use the Store.LocalizedSortCaseSensitive property to control the case sensitivity of the sort order.

Example

Example localized sorting
When localization is disabled, Å is treated as a variant of A and the two characters will sort near each other.

When localization is enabled in a Danish locale, Å is treated as a separate letter that sorts just after Z.
