Does anyone know how one goes about adding multiple 'entries' in the 
'DOS_VERSION' DOS setting when using teh REXX SysCreateObject call?

For instance, I'm trying to create an object for Lotus 3.1, which requires
the following entries in the DOS_VERSION field:
  INSTALL.EXE,3,40,255
  123.EXE,3,40,255
  LOTUS.EXE,3,40,255
  123DOS.EXE,3,40,255
  ZAP.EXE,3,40,255
  INS.EXE,3,40,255

I can't seem to do more than one at a time -- no separator I've tried yet
forces the next entry to the next line of the field, and each separate 
"SET DOS_VERSION=..." clears any previous entries in the field.  (This
behaviour is present under the new Beta code, as well as GA code.)

I'm assuming this problem also applies to the DOS_DEVICE field -- how does
one add multiple device drivers with a SysCreateObject call?  They use the
same field device...

Thanks for any help/hints/discussion.
