Dear Mathematica Gurus.

I am working with a student (undergraduate math major) who is using 
Wavelet Explorer to process numerous datasets using a multiresolution 
analysis with various parameter settings.  We would like to know how 
we might create a notebook that would
	(1) read in a datafile from a list of files in a local 
directory (or in a hardcoded array),
	(2) run a multiresolution analysis on the file (this analysis 
is already coded),
	(3) save the results (e.g., in the form of a mathematica notebook), and
	(4) do the same in turn for each of the datasets in a local 
directory, as described in (1).
Having a way to create such a 'loop' would save us much time, but 
we're don't know how to direct Mathematica to save the results of 
each analysis.

Can anybody tell us how we might do this, or if it's a reasonable thing to do?

Thank you in advance.

Jason
