Я занимаюсь исследованием существующей системы, в которой SQL Server используется в качестве бэкэнда. Мы начинаем хранить данные заголовков специальных элементов на нескольких языках (включая русский язык кириллическими и другими европейскими языками). Мой вопрос касается сортировки этих данных, каковы мои варианты изменения порядка сортировки по требованию без изменения параметров сортировки? Могу ли я выбрать параметры сортировки в самом запросе?
Вот пример запроса, с которым я играю, чтобы попытаться увидеть:
SELECT STR FROM (
SELECT N'а01' AS STR UNION
SELECT N'б02' AS STR UNION

Похоже, что некоторые кириллические символы похожи на их английские эквиваленты, есть ли способы, чтобы эти перемежения были частью "от А до Я"?
Какие другие параметры сортировки доступны в SQL Server?
Если я не могу сделать это в запросе, какой самый надежный способ сортировки можно выбрать для каждого столбца?
