GOAL:

How to configure accent insensitive searches with DataServer for Oracle?

GOAL:

How to configure an Oracle database to perform accent insensitive searches

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
All Supported Operating Systems
Oracle DataServer
Oracle

FIX:

In order to enable accent insensitive searches and sorting for the DataServer for Oracle product, the Oracle database itself must be configured correctly. This involves setting both the NLS_COMP and NLS_SORT parameters appropriately. No real changes are required on the DataServer side as it is merely passing a result set generated by Oracle back to the client.
Suggested values for the NLS_COMP and NLS_SORT parameters are as follows:

Oracle 9.x
Set NLS_COMP to ANSI
Set NLS_SORT to GENERIC_BASELETTER

Oracle 10.x and later
Set NLS_COMP to LINGUISTIC
Set NLS_SORT to BINARY_AI
