How to run macro on multiple files

I have a macro that I need to run on 100 files - can anyone guide me how to do that in one shot rather than running it on each file?

Thank you very much!

-Create your macro and make it end by going to the next document (Ctrl-Tab)
-Open all documents
-Run the macro with "Macros -> Multi-play" and select "Specified number or times" with the number the same as your document count.

Note that your macro should probably do save before you make it go the next document.
Also you can't make a macro close a document (don't know why) and therefore I use the go-to-next trick instead.

Thanks a ton for this tip!

It's going to save me hours, if not days, of work!
