Converting to Plines

Does anyone know of a way of converting many lines into Plines without joining/filleting them. ( The lines aren't all joint and I want them to stay that way, but I'd like a way to select the hundreds of lines I have and turn them into Plines to give them a width)

 

With PEDITACCEPT = 1 (2004 & 2005 only)
Command: pedit
Select polyline or [Multiple]: m
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 5 found
Select objects:
Enter an option [Close/Open/Join/Width/Fit/Spline/Decurve/Ltype gen/Undo]: w
Specify new width for all segments: 6
Enter an option [Close/Open/Join/Width/Fit/Spline/Decurve/Ltype gen/Undo]:

With PEDITACCEPT = 0 (2002 and earlier behavior)
Command: pedit
Select polyline or [Multiple]: m
Select objects: Specify opposite corner: 5 found
Select objects:
Convert Lines and Arcs to polylines [Yes/No]? <Y> y
Enter an option [Close/Open/Join/Width/Fit/Spline/Decurve/Ltype gen/Undo]: w
Specify new width for all segments: 6
Enter an option [Close/Open/Join/Width/Fit/Spline/Decurve/Ltype gen/Undo]:

 

Sorry, dumb question.

Thanks

 

McG: Type PE, select a line; you'll be asked of you want to turn it into a polyline. Press enter or type Y and enter.

Since I don't have all the latest software that the other poster has at his disposal nor (obviously) the expanse of knowledge (length of post), I have to muck around on the lowly command line.

 

All I did was copy and paste from the text screen. Whether or not you need
to answer yes depends upon the value of the PEDITACCEPT system variable.
This is new to 2004 and 2005. Previous versions act as if PEDITACCEPT=0.

 

I have custom button with following string in buuton props
^C^C_pedit;\y;j to pick a line then pick further lines to turn into pline
^C^C_pedit;\j;\ pick a pline then add further lines
