opening a large amount of MDL SDFiles at once

This seems like a simple fix, but I cannot figure out how to open all 135 MDL SDfiles of a library sent to me by a collegue. They are all in one folder as individual files but I want to open them into one single window-either excel (I have JChem for excel) or in Marvinview.


 


Thank you,


Graham

A better question might be:


How do I open a batch of SD files into a column of SMILES or structures in excel?


Thank you, I hope this is more clear.

Hi,


you should use the molconvert utility.


You can find documentation here. You need something like the 6th example.
