COLLATION parameter in SQL query

Hi,
I have MySql 3.23.58-nt and database with :
character set: latin1
character sets: latin1 big5 czech euc_kr gb2312 gbk sjis tis620 ujis dec8 dos german1 hp8 koi8_ru latin2 swe7 usa7 cp1251 danish hebrew win1251 estonia hungarian koi8_ukr win1251ukr greek win1250 croat cp1257 latin5 (info by PHPMyAdmin 2.5.6)

and I can not change it.

The data (varchar) was send in win-1250 encoding, but stored in latin1 table.
My problem is that when I want to display and sort table by "ORDER BY"
SQL parameter, there are not sorted right.

So I try to use SQL command " SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY name COLLATION cp1250_general_ci LIMIT 0,30".

But answer from PHPMyAdmin is:
"#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'COLLATION cp1250_general_ci LIMIT 0, 30' at line 4 "

What is wrong?
Me? DB? MySQL? PHP? God?
