You can get the most elegant solution with the help of the JavaScript Scripting Interface. But here I suggest a one using only ‘iim’s. So, create e.g. ‘macro1.iim’ for ‘1.csv’, ‘macro2.iim’ for ‘2.csv’ etc. The code of the ‘macro1.iim’ will be as follows:

' number of lines in csv-files
SET linesInFile 1
SET !LOOP EVAL(2-{{linesInFile}})
SET !DATASOURCE /Users/almishal/Desktop/imacros/new/1.csv
SET !DATASOURCE_LINE EVAL({{!LOOP}}+{{linesInFile}}-1)
TAB CLOSEALLOTHERS
' ... (your code here)

' next macro to play
SET next "macro2"
SET S EVAL("('{{!LOOP}}' == 1) ? 'imacros://run/?m={{next}}.iim' : 'javascript:undefined;';")
URL GOTO={{S}}

I believe that you’ve caught the idea and will make necessary corrections to ‘macro2.iim’ etc. (There won’t be a ‘next macro to play’ block in the last macro.) In order to play this chain you should run only ‘macro1.iim’ in usual (NOT loop) mode. Also note that I supposed that all macros are in the root of the default ‘iMacros’ folder for them.
