Need to sort a very large list of words

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I have a text file, one word per line.
I want to arrange the lines alphabetically so I opened it into MS Word and
asked Word to sort it.
Word said that the list was too big for it.
I figure I'll write a program to sort the file.
But I wonder if Word can't handle it what things I'll run into and what's
the best way to proceed.

I have no idea what kind of limits the are on array sizes and such.


Any helpful comments?


Thanks in advance.
