We often have students who come and run reactions in our lab and then analyze by GC-MS and would like to take resuts back with then. Generally, you'd want the TIC, the % report with peaks, retention times and areas and the library search report. Usually we'll load the file in ChemStation then go through the "Export Reports - % report to HTML and library search report to HTML", in order to produce the folders containing the desired information under the data folder for that specific run.

Is there any way to do this automatically as part of the method? I'm aware of macros, but I am not familiar in writing/reading them.

Ideally, it would be even better if a *single* file (HTML or pdf) would contain the TIC, the data for peaks, retention times, areas and library search report but I'm not sure where to start with that.

Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated!
