Am I doing it wrong?

I've been told that the way I run Metastock is too much work and
considering the amount of people that use Metastock there must be an easier
way.  So I thought I would throw this out to the metastock experts on this
group.  Here's what I need to do:

1.  Update the charts in the evening automatically.  Prior to this week I
was using Dial/Data through Autonet so I did not access the internet and I
could use delayed update.
2.  Print a variety of 60 charts Monday-Thursday and approximately 250 on
the weekend.

As of this week, Dial/Data can only be accessed through the internet, so I
have to build a macro using "express download" because my ISP is Earthlink
and apparently it will not dial, or disconnect, automatically.  I haven't
gotten this macro to work yet.

Also, I was printing a group of 20 charts so I was able to group them all
into one macro.  Now I've been requested to set up the macro so it is
easier to pull one or two out and replace them with others.  

The macro program that equis had built in (many versions ago) was great for
what I wanted to do.  Now I use Autorun which I can use pretty easy, but
its still a pain in the you-know-what.  Anyone want to throw out any ideas?
 Especially people who do macro programs.  I've heard of Win Batch as a
macro program, but what does that have over Autorun?  

I'd appreciate any advice you have.
