I am trying to write a VBA script which ends once it has changed, saved and closed all ActiveDocument / open files. The script reads like

Sub Replace ()
Do
.....

ActiveDocument.Save
ActiveDocument.Close

Until [All ActiveDocument are closed]

End Sub

I am looking for the right code for the action described in the square brackets.

Thanks in advance
