In command syntax, there's also:
 
dataset close all. /*closes all data windows except active one.
output close name=all. /*closes all output windows.
 
The former was added in version 14 (along with the ability to have multiple open datasets). The latter was added in version 15 (along with various other commands for controlling output windows/files).

I have made a list of files I use a lot and open them by syntax (GET FILE=). Then when I open another one the previous one closes automaticaly.

Thank you! It looks like just the thing. That's a Windows thing, too,
not an SPSS thing, isn't it? Anyway, it cycles through all the Windows
open windows, not just whichever ones SPSS has open.

The things one should have known for years ....

-Many, many thanks,
