Hi,
I'm using HXTT Access to generate an Access DB from Linux.
Sometimes when I open the generated DB with MS Excel and the ODBC driver I get an error, which translated to english says something like this:

"selected sort order is not supported by the operating system"

This only happens under Windows XP.

I tried using the Cp1252 characted encoding, but I still get the same problem
Properties properties=new Properties();
properties.setProperty("charSet","Cp1252");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:access:///" + dir,properties);

The data contains western european characters.

Any help is very welcome.

one more thing:
How can I set the "CollatingOrder" parameter of an Access DB?
I think I need it to be "General".

Changed. With the latest package, all created mdb file will use General. Now CollatingOrder isn't supported to as a connection property.

Thanks for replying.
You said "all created mdb file WILL use General". Does this mean such a driver is not released yet?

I bought the driver a few days ago and it seems the CollatingOrder is not "General".

I don't understand why I get this error only on some DBF files. I generate a collection of DBF files (structure and data) and only a few of them are unreadable under windows XP.

Any idea?

You can visit www.hxtt.com site to download the latest package which has supported it.

Have you seen "selected sort order is not supported by the operating system" in HXTT DBF too? charSet=Cp1252 should work normally with HXTT DBF.

I will download the latest package, though I think I'm already using this one.

No, it only happens when I open the MDB file with excel on windows XP for instance.

You haven't download it since the latest package is upload after received your support request.
