☜	Error Code M30 M[UMPS] by Example					☞

M30, Reference to glvn with different collating sequence within a collating algorithm

Introduced in the 1995 ANSI M[UMPS] language standard.

In ^$Character(setname,"COLLATE"), an algorithm may be specified that will be used internally by the M[UMPS] system to establish the collating order of for a character-set. The string that will be used internally for collating purposes is computed by a function call equivalent to Set internal=$$entry^routine(actualvalue). If such a function is invoked, and a reference is evaluated to a variable that has a different collating algorithm than the one that is being computed, this error will occur.
