Just PURGE - no question asked.

If you want to perform a PURGE in your drawing, without any interactive questions, you can use the commandline version of this command: -PURGE, or a simple LISP macro:

Either add the following menu macro to your menu:
_-PURGE;_All;*;_N;
Or add the the following LISP macro:
(vl-load-com)(vla-purgeall (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)))
Or use LISP to define your own new command PURGEA:
```
  
(defun C:PURGEA ()  
(vl-load-com)  
(vla-purgeall (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object)))  
(prin1)  
)  
```
