Dictionary Order, Case-insensitive, Uppercase Preference

With this sort order, characters with diacritical marks are treated as different from all other characters (except their corresponding uppercase or lowercase characters). For example:

A = a
Ä = ä
Å = å
a ¹ à ¹ á ¹ â ¹ ä ¹ å
A ¹ Ä ¹ Å
Jose = jose
Jose ¹ José

With this sort order, characters are compared according to the following rules:

• Uppercase characters are sorted before their corresponding lowercase characters.
• Uppercase characters with diacritical marks are sorted before their corresponding lowercase characters.
• Characters with diacritical marks are sorted after characters without diacritical marks.
• Characters with diacritical marks are sorted in the order they appear in the character set

For example:

A, a, à, á, â, Ä, ä, Å, å
