How to quit all open drawings without saving?

If you want to quickly close (abandon, quit) all drawings opened in your AutoCAD session, without saving and without any prompts and questions, you can use the following VisualLISP macro:

;Quit all drawings without saving (CAD Studio - www.cadforum.cz)
(vl-load-com)
(defun C:QuitAll ( / dwg)
 (vlax-for dwg (vla-get-Documents (vlax-get-acad-object))
  (if (= (vla-get-active dwg) :vlax-false)(vla-close dwg :vlax-false))
 )
 (command "._close" "_y")
)

Save this code to a LSP file (or download the ready-made QuitAll.lsp) and load it in AutoCAD using APPLOAD. The command QuitAll then closes all opened drawings and leaves AutoCAD in a "zero-doc" state. Please use this command carefully - all unsaved changes will be lost!

To quit multiple DWG drawings including optional save, use the Express Tools command QQUIT.
