Works. Thanks. Never would have figured out to right click on "Model" to duplicate all linked systems. That's sneaky. -- Andrew Andrew Kelly, P.E.

Do: Tools->Options->Appearance-> Turn on 'Beta Options' Then right click on 'Model' in the first block (the one where the Model is note greyed out), then select 'Duplicate All Analyses (Beta)'. This should do exactly what you want to do.
