Launch macros one by one from a batch file

In Firefox, Using Imacros, I would like to launch multiple macros from a batch file but here is the problem: I want them to run one by one.
So first 'Macro 1' will run then after it completes, 'Macro 2' will run and so on till 'Macro 7'.

My BATCH CODE:

cd C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
start firefox.exe 
ping -n 05 127.0.0.1>nul
start firefox.exe imacros://run/?m=NAMEofMACRO.iim

Imacros VERSION BUILD=7601105

Another way, inside imacros, is to add at the and of each macro.iim the line

URL GOTO=imacros://run/?m=NAMEofNextMACRO.iim

So you have to run just the first macro; this macro, at the end will call the second, and the second, at the end, will call the third, and so on...

Just change your macro line to use the start switch /wait

start /wait firefox.exe imacros://run/?m=NAMEofMACRO.iim
start /wait firefox.exe imacros://run/?m=NAMEofNextMACRO.iim
start /wait firefox.exe imacros://run/?m=NAMEofNextMACRO.iim

That will launch each one, wait for it to finish, then start the next.
