Default How to close multiple notepads without answering yes/no/cancel multiple times?

Hi there

Quick question regarding notepad. I am using Windows XP.

I often need to open a lot of notepad (e.g. 25 notepads) for temporary
keeping text, but I do not need to save all these.

Everytime I want to close the whole group (e.g. whole 25 notepads),
this message keep coming up (for 25 times !!!)

"The text in the Untitled file has changed. Do you want to save
changes?
Yes/No/Cancel"


Question:
1) How can I close the whole group (e.g. whole 25 notepads) without
answering 25 times "No" ??

2) Any quicker way to close whole group without saving?

Thanks a lot.


There is a program called notepad.exe which makes it easy to do that, plus
to reopen sets of files if you wish to. It's simple and easy to use. I use
it for making the same changes to multiple files all at once and similar
things. It has both a Close All and a Save All feature; no individual acks
needed to use it.

About half way down the page; it's free.
