For the life of me, short of doing an arc pline which would be a pain in the
backside, how can I give an ellipse a pline thickness? I should note that I
don't want to do it through pen thicknesses, but would like to have it shown
onscreen...

Using Autocad 2000....

Thanks in advance...

Don't you mean pline *width*? If so, you can't. You'll either have to
approximate your ellipses by setting the PELLIPSE variable to 1 *before*
drawing them, or convert your current ellipses to polyline approximations
some other way.
