Operation Notes 

Signals the beginning of the SORT program if the SORTOUTPUT intrinsic is
not called.

Required if SORTINIT is called.  Call SORTEND either after all calls to
the output file are completed by the SORTINIT intrinsic, or after all
calls to the SORTOUTPUT intrinsic are completed.


NOTE  If you are coding a CM application, you must call SORTEND in the
      same routine

      in which you call the SORTINIT intrinsic.  This is not the case
      when you code an

      NM application.
