This sounded like an easy question until you said you pressed play and
nothing happened...
When you click "next frame" it is supposed to display the next file in the
sequence.

File -> Save Animation
should then save each step into a separate image file that you can then
concatenate into a video if necessary.

Can you provide a few of the files so we can see if we can reproduce the
behavior?

Thanks,

David
