Distributing the load across SORTWORK files

We are doing a very large sort in quiz.  It consistently runs for a time and then dies.  We have 10 SORTWORK files defined, but only one seems to be used.  It grows to several million blocks before the process dies.  The others are virtually untouched.
   
  We are running OpenVMS V6.2 with PowerHouse version 7.10E6.
   
  Does anyone have a suggestion on how to distribute the sort load across multiple SORTWORK files.
   
   
  Thanks in advance for any help any of you can offer on this.
