Multiple profile lines

I am wondering if there is a way to generate multiple profile lines at the same time. We have hundreds of station lines that we need profiles along, so I don't want to have to do each line individually using the digitizer tool.
I was looking at another option, which was the Elevation/Slope stats option, but can I use that option with multiple lines at once, or is it only along single profile lines?
Thanks. I am a new user, so I apologize if these questions seem simplistic.

I should add that I'm using Version 11

In v12 you can simply select those lines with the Digitizer Tool, then right-click and select the option to add per-vertex elevations to the lines. In v11, you would need to export the lines to a new file, like a Simple ASCII Text File or Shapefile, and select the option to create 3D features from the loaded terrain. This should generate 3D lines that you can load back in or view in other software to see the profile of each path.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Thanks,
Mike
