Zotero Word plugin bibliography sorting
After a lot of cursing I found out that the sorting of the bibliography entries in Word 2007 (currently 3.1.4 & 2.1.10 zotero plugins, but worked the same in the older versions) is influenced by the "Language for non-Unicode programs" settings in Windows 7 (not sure about other win versions).
Example: In Czech "ch" is a single letter following letter "h" in the alphabet. But obviously when writing an English paper, I want to have authors starting with "Ch" among those whose name starts with "C". The only way how to achieve it is to change the above-mentioned language settings to English, which requires a reboot and causes a lot of trouble with other software.
Am I missing something? Would it be possible to sort according to some other settings which would be easier to change? Thanks!

Btw when looking at "My Library" in Firefox and sorting by Creator, the items are also sorted according to the Czech locale. But this is no big deal.
I think Simon is planning to offer some locale selection options in the UI. To avoid confusion, I'll wait until that's been worked out before making adjustments in the processor.
