HRESULT GetSortOrder(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

Remarks
Character set and ordering compatibility between instances of SQL Server can positively affect operations affecting more than one server. For example, distributed query is optimized when two instances are character set and order compatible. Character set and order are established at installation.
