ALTSEQ
The ALTSEQ command defines a collating sequence other than the standard
ASCII or EBCDIC format. The ALTSEQ command must be preceded by a DATA
command. It is effective only if the keys are of type BYTE and if the
input data is ASCII. (Refer to Appendix B of the Sort-Merge/XL General
User's Guide for information on ASCII and EBCDIC character set values.)
