    Well, I have to hatch something and I know there is a function that can show lines that aren't closed. I just can't remember what it is..

    you can also QSELECT and choose only (or all) polylines which are not closed, if that helps

    Lines or Polylines? Polylines that aren't closed will be indicated in the Properties window under Misc > Closed > Yes/No.

    I have no idea what the command CH is supposed to do.

    So you weren't actually checking to see if they were closed. You wanted to know how to close them.

    remark - CH is the standard command for properties palette - i have no idea why CH but it works on all my machines
    (the least i expect now is to be shown step by step, with reference to AutoCAD help, how and why i am wrong )
