VOR/DME approach?

[G-BPEC]

Just wondering if it is possble and practical to fly a VOR DME approach in LNAV/VNAV mode, for example using the altitude restrictions on the chart as speed/alt restrictions on the VNAV coloumn at the various points on the chart (entered on LNAV as P/B/D waypoints)?

I realise that all the waypoints and retrictions are probably already entered by the airline, of course, but theroetically (sp?) ???

Is this done often? If so, how close to the ground is it done on the approach?

Thanks
