Sort Order Identifiers
This topic describes sort order identifiers, which can be used in the preparation of locale identifiers. A sort order identifier is defined in the form "_sortorder", at the end of the locale name used in the identifier, for example, "de-DE_phoneb", where "phoneb" is the sort order. The corresponding locale identifier is created as follows: MAKELCID(MAKELANGID(LANG_GERMAN, SUBLANG_GERMAN), SORT_GERMAN_PHONE_BOOK).
