Actually I don't recall seeing a CLOSE ALL on the Window Menu, where are you getting it from? (though it is listed in the System Menu Names in Help, that's where the names came from)

If there's one present, that code should work...you have to be exact on which menu and bar, or nothing will occur with the command...
