It seems to me that Chinese characters are sorted by the number of
strokes. So for example, the character for "big" (Da in Mandarin, Tai in
Cantonese) comes before the character for "middle" (Zhong, the first
character in the name "China") because the former has two strokes in it
and the second has three strokes. Does the double-byte set order support
this? Does the computer sorting support this?

In the English version of my application, the user can specify "Give me
all names that are lexicographically bigger than 'A' and less than 'G'
". So the name Chris falls in the range, but Micro doesn't. In order to
do something like this in Chinese characters there has to be a
conventional sort order among the Chinese characters that is supported
by the computer (and the double-byte set order). Is there?
