yes, the default can be changed, but what will the default be on a Korean Windows/VFP combination? Will it be Korean or Machine (assuming no one has changed the config file).

Just to recap, the problem is that apparently on an INDEX ON statement against a DBF with code page=1252, on a Windows/VFP Korean system, we get the "Collating Sequence 'KOREAN" is not found" error.

Our application has not changed COLLATE setting, nor code page.

Could this error occur if Korean characters were entered into the dbf?

Should we let the users decide what code page and what COLLATE setting they want to use and have our application adjust accordingly?

Thanks for all your time.


>>isn't the VFP default of SET COLLATE TO MACHINE? Or will it default to KOREAN on on a Korean version of Windows/VFP?
