You can specify the sort sequence for a file. The values of the
SRTSEQ parameter along with the CCSID and LANGID parameters determine which
sort sequence table the file uses. You can set the SETSEQ parameter for
both the physical and the logical files.
You can specify:
- System supplied sort sequence tables with unique or shared collating
weights. There are sort sequence tables for each supported
language.
- Any user-created sort sequence table.
- The hexadecimal value of the characters in the character set.
- The sort sequence of the current job or the one specified in the ALTSEQ
parameter.
The sort sequence table is stored with the file, except when the sort
sequence is *HEX.
