When comparing two character strings of unequal length, IQ treats the
shorter one as if it were padded with blanks to the length of the longer one,
so that ‘abc’ compares equal to ‘abc‘ (

The collation sequence ISO_BINENG is used. The collation order is the
same as the order of characters in the ASCII character set. In a case-
sensitive database, all uppercase letters precede all lowercase letters (for
example, both 'A' and 'B' precede 'a').

You can create a database using a relative or fully qualified pathname for each
