@bobbygsk, thanks for your reply.

No, its not that simple as we look like. Sorting the file completely re-orders all the lines.
I need to sort only the portion of the file and not the complete file. My file has 3500 lines and i need to sort only specific lines.

Sort <filename> doesnt provide the result as expected.

Code:
root@bmcpunscm-lnx-test: /tmp-> sort < users_all.txt > users_all.txt1
root@bmcpunscm-lnx-test: /tmp-> cat users_all.txt1
