Selected collating sequence not supported by the operating system

1 New Member
Hi, I am trying to read Microsoft Excel spreadsheets that were last saved by a person using a chinese language version of excel. Using Asp i am getting an error message. The error message in the browser is "Selected collating sequence not supported by the operating system. (Microsoft JET Database Engine). We found one work around for this issue by creating a batch script that would open these spreadsheet with an English Language version of excel and save them. Can any one please help to resolve this issue

Hi I am using Windows 2000(SP4) and recently had MS ACCESS 2000 (9.0.2720) installed. My problem is I cannot create or open any database without getting the following message "Select Collating Sequence not supported by the operating system". I have searched around this and other forums and the only suggestion is to update the CollatingSequence key in the registry which I have done but my problem still exists.

I need to generate 2 random numbers in rapid sequence from either PHP or mysql. I have not been able to do either. I get the same number back several times from PHP's mt_rand() and from mysql's RAND(). any ideas? I suppose I could use the current rancom number as the seed for the next random number. but would that really work?

I put together the following module today and would like some feedback on any obvious problems. Or even opinions of weather or not it is a good approach. While collating is not a difficult thing to do for experienced programmers, I have seen quite a lot of poorly sorted lists in commercial applications, so it seems it would be good to have an easy to use ready made API for collating. I tried to make this both easy to use and flexible. ...

We have a customer who would like to see their data sorted in a case- insensitive manner. I've tried several of the out of the box collating sequences (identity, system, compatibility) but none of them result in the ordering they would like to see. Has anyone used the Create Database API to pass in a custom collating sequence that would result in a case-insensitive sort (ie a=A for weight)? Are there samples of how to do this? Any...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
