This enumeration defines a set of constants that set culture-specific behavior on string comparisons in the CompareInfo class. IgnoreKanaType treats phonetic Japanese symbols the same whether they are in hiragana or katagana characters. IgnoreNonSpace disregards nonspacing characters such as diacritics. Ordinal specifies that comparison is done with Unicode values.
