    Ignored characters

    When indexing text, Access ignores characters in the Greek Extended
    range (\u1Fxx). Is there anyway to make Access (and SQL Server!)
    handle these characters? Are their other character ranges ignored by
    Access? Thanks

    Version of Access? Sort order (collation) of the database?

      Access 2002. General Sort order. The column may have several other
      languages besides Greek.

      Try:

      u1F41 u03B4 u03BF u1F76
      and
      u03B4 u1F7B u03BF
      and
      u03B4 u03BF

      They all get indexed as the same string in Access and SQL Server.
