How do I close ALL MDI Child windows?

[VhD50]

Hello all,
Is there a way that I can close all the mdi child windows from the mdi
parent's menu item? For example, on the MDI parent from, I have a MainMenu
with "File" and "Close All" menu items. I want that when a user clicks on
"File" then chooses "Close All", all the currently open MDI child windows
are close (the application should be still running). Can someone points me
to the right direction please?
Thank you very much.

Try this:

For i = 0 To Me.MdiChildren.Length - 1
Me.MdiChildren(i).close()
Next

Thank for the tip, NG. It works after a little modification to the code you
gave me:

For i = Me.MdiChildren.Length - 1 To 0 Step -1
Me.MdiChildren(i).close()
Next

(without stepping backward in the "For" loop, I'll get "Out of Bound"
Exception)
Thanks again.
