Open all pinned items on Windows 7 jump lists?

Is there any way to open all of the pinned items on a program's jump list in Windows 7?
I have a couple of programs with a bunch of files that I check each day, and it'd be nice if I could right-click on them and click "open all pinned items" or something. Just for convenience's sake. Any ideas?

Best answer: It would be pretty easy to whip up a script in either AutoIT or AutoHotkey to do this for you. You could then compile them into a single executable.

Response by poster: Thanks-- either will work, I'll try them both out.

I'm pretty sure you can't choose more than one item from that menu at a time.
Instead, you can try opening the base program that you're using, then drag and drop a bunch of files on top of the open program - the computer will usually open them all. Not every program does this. We frequently use this technique in Photoshop.
