One of the 'joys" of client/server is that often the server side doesn't play well with your local computer. So if you are working in an environment like that, where you can't write proc export to write one file to your local machine then you won't be able to do multiple files without additional actions.
One possibility would be creating some network disk share location where both your local computer and the server have access to. This might be easiest if your admins are helpful and your overall system is flexible enough. Security often raises its head in these situations about who has what access where and how though. You might be able to create share from your local computer but getting the server to see it may be tricky.
Another might involving writing the files to a folder on the server and then possibly you can use a manual step to copy the whole folder.
Grumpy old fart comment: I have to laugh in a curmudgeonly fashion about point and click 20 times is "too long" for a computer operation. I used to have to punch a deck of cards and hand them to an assistant at the computer center to run a job. They would wait until they had a number of jobs that used the same compiler so they would run faster. Quite often turn around was measured in hours.
