Anyone know how to easily specify a list of files and then have a macro run on each file in chemstation?

I suggest you try adding your macro to a method via the Runtime Checklist post data analysis macro box, then using the Batch functionality to reprocess all the files. You don't actually have to do anything useful with the data analysis results.

You may try
www.chemstation.de It is a company in Germany specialized in software support. The founder of the company used to make the macro programming seminars for Agilent in Germany as far as I know on a free-lance basis. There is something like a chemstation-explorer on their website, however, I do not know how much they will charge.

My approach would be to specify the list of files in the sequence table and then process these files by running a 'reprocessing only' sequence with the macro added in the 'run time checklist' as a post-run macro.
Prerequisite is a common path to the files, to be specified in the sequence parameters.
The creation of the list of files (assuming they are in the same directory) can be done using a dos command: 'dir *.d > mylist.txt'. This text file can be imported into excel and customized to suite your needs. The excel file can be modified to serve as an import table for the sequence table.
