  Sorry, but I don't understand. Do you get a message? Or your data goes out unsorted?

  I'm afraid I still don't understand, where the problem is: error doesn't occur and data is sorted. This is what one would expect from ExtSort.
  The only idea I have is, that you have some null data. Nulls are regarded as as smaller than anything else, so they can be on the beginning of the output. Try to list more records, than default 10.
