Hi there,

I have a MySQL 4.1 DB running including a database whose character set
is set to utf8.
In the database I have a table "tblmembers" with some records containing
german umlauts.
How do I sort results with german umlauts if the database character set
is set to utf8?

Using the SQL query

SELECT memberid, lastname
  FROM tblmembers
  ORDER BY lastname

I get the following result:

Makee
Maty
Mayer
März
Müller
Münze
Mebel
Meier

This sort order is wrong according to german sorting rules.

The right sorting order according to german sorting rules is:

Makee
März
Maty
Mayer
Mebel
Meier
Müller
Münze


How can I sort the results in my utf8 database according german sorting
rules?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Nico
