Hi Wirt, Donna and Rich :)
    All had great answers (and Donna even a command file for this!).  I
ended up using Rich Trapp's answer of cut and paste from the file I created
on my PC in NotePad+.  I pasted all the commands I had typed in the NotePad+
at the SYSGEN prompt on the 3k and it worked great!

Thanks All :)
