EBC-COL-SEQ

Determines the EBCDIC collating sequence activated by the NATIVE"EBCDIC" option.

Syntax:

>>-.---.--EBC-COL-SEQ--"coll-seq-type"---------------><
   +-/-+

Parameters:

coll-seq-type
The type of collating sequence in effect.
1
Uses a fixed EBCDIC collating sequence; this is platform independent.
2
Uses a collating sequence according to the CODESET table in effect, as set by the MFCODESET environment variable.

Properties:

Default: EBC-COL-SEQ"1"
Phase: Syntax check
$SET: Initial

Comments:

Codeset mappings can differ between UNIX and Windows; therefore, when EBC-COL-SEQ"2" is in effect, the collating sequence may differ between the two platforms.
