Selecting items and changing color

    Hi All,

    I am writing a LISP command to select all items in a file, and change the
    color to the layer color that they are on.

    I cannot find a command to "select all" nor can I figure out how to change
    to color of the selected items if I do it manually.

    Please help,
    Chad

    (setq ss (ssget "x"))<-- selects all objects in drawing and makes a selection set of them
    (command "_.change" ss "" "_p" "_c" "_bylayer" "")<-- here you use the change command to change the selection set properties, color, to bylayer.

    (command "chprop" SS "" "Color" "Bylayer" "")
    )
