Functions like filtering and sorting are performed by your database. And databases use something called 'collation' to determine which letters are considered equal in queries. In your case I would check the collation of your tables, and look in the documentation for your database to work out which collation to use if you want to change the current behaviour. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
