^$Global( gvnexpr , expr1 V "COLLATE" ) = expr2 V algoref
This node identifies the collation algorithm to be used when collation is required for a reference to this global variable. Let collate be the value of expr2. The collation value order for a subscript-string subscript, and a collation algorithm collate may be determined by executing the expression:
("S order="_collate_"(subscript )")
In all cases a collation algorithm must return a distinct order for each distinct subscript.
When the first node of a global variable ^global is created, and the collation algorithm node ^$Global( "^global" , "COLLATE" ) has a $Data value of zero, then the value of the current process’ Character Set Profile collation algorithm ( $Get( ^$Character( ^$Job( $Job, "CHARACTER"), "COLLATE" ) ) ) is assigned as the collation algorithm of the global variable ( ^$Global( "^global " , "COLLATE" ) ).
