subject: Sorting in TSE pro

Hey All!
I have tried to sort an ascii file in TSE pro 2.50.
The file has 46.000 lines, each of 252 columns, but most caracters are 
spaces, so its original size of 11.7 MB can be zip'ed to 512 K for transport.
When I try to sort all lines on just 1 column I get the message:
Error 3636 running external sort program:tsort.com Press 
Is TSE pro 2.50 unable to sort 46.000 lines?
Has the number of columns in the sort-block any influence?
Has the with of the lines any influence?
Has free RAM any influence?
Has free harddiskspace any influence?
