Multiple Mates at once

Hi,

 

Asking  a lot of related questions today!

 

I have 10 components, each has a surface i wish to mate to a plane.

 

Have created my plane, is there a way i can select all faces of relevant components, then the plane, and then apply the mate?

 

Inventor, it would seem, only allows you to constrain items one-at-a-time which is not that efficeint, (have 20 odd parts to mate to this plane).

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks  Joe Banger
