Is there a keyboard shortcut that will close all open windows? (without using the task manager)

Regards.
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
Unfortunately I looked for this one day and was never able to find it. I did find out some other neat things like being able to hold contol and click on different things on the taskbar to close things in groups or you can press Alt + Spacebar + c to close windows and you could do it multiple times, but never found a way to do them all at once.

Sorry I was rambling and didn't really give a solution, but bumped it bnack to the top of the list.

Thanks ZVI.

Cool! I didn't know about that shortcut though it only minimizes all the open windows to the taksbar but doesn't close them.

Again thanks you.
