Hi,

working on a new project between France and North-Africa, I'll need arabics collations on certain columns in many tables (the rest of database will be in french_ci_as, or french_ci_ai).

I know I can specifiy it in a post-deployement script, but this implies to create index likewise (alter column ... collate my_collation is forbidden if an index uses this column)

Is there another workaround ? (or a plan inside SF team dreams to add/modify column collation )

Thanks in advance

Gotcha. That makes sense. This is something that we would have to change to provide a certain collation on a per column basis. Like I said, we will add this to the list as the DDT is getting some pretty nice upgrades and as we move forward I want to continue to accommodate all needs in this area. So it will make it in, just don't know exactly when. I have just added this post to the "to-do" list.
