Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress 4GL Reference

CPCOLL attribute

The collation table Progress uses with the Internal Code Page (-cpinternal) startup parameter.

Data type: CHARACTER

Access: Readable

Applies to: SESSION system handle

By default, Progress uses the collation rules you specify to compare characters and sort records. The collation rules specified with the Collation Table (-cpcoll) startup parameter take precedence over a collation specified for any database Progress accesses during the session, except when Progress uses or modifies pre-existing indexes. If you do not specify a collation with the -cpcoll startup parameter, Progress uses the language collation rules defined for the first database on the command line. If you do not specify a database on the command line, Progress uses the collation rules with the default name "basic" (which might or might not exist in the convmap.cp file).
