    "close all" feature

    I used to use this (Shift+File menu option) to obtain Close all to (surprise, surprise) close all open files without quitting Excel in versions pre 2007.  Is there any way of still doing this that I have not found?

    Add the close all button to your QAT (Quick Access Toolbar). Go to Office Button>Excel Options>Customize>Chnage Popular Commands to All Commands, scroll down the list and select Close All and click Add.

    It will now reside on the little toolbar above (or if you've chnaged it below) the ribbon
