[thelist] sql: order by and umlauts/entities

Hi,
I have a table containing names which have umlauts saved as entities in
it, eg. "Köln".

If I do a "select name order by name" on this table, I get "Köln -
Kassel" instead of "Kassel - Köln".

This is quite logical, but is there a way using SQL to change this?
I don't like the idea of using PHP to sort this array afterwards...

TIA,
Joxn
