ok, so if they are not defined.. then how can I delete them from a
drawing (I don't want to use purge)?

Never done anything with SHAPEs, but perhaps
(ssget) and (vla-delete) would get the job done?

Shape definitions are in a shx file (a complied shp file) The file can
contain one shape or multiple shapes. The only way to delete the file is if
none of the shapes defined in it are not in the dwg. Now if each shape has
it own definition file and the shape is not used in the dwg that shx file is
not loaded into the dwg. But if the shape was inserted then deleted the shx
file is still in the dwg and the only way in know of to "delete" it is with
purge. IOW a shape file is the about the same as a font/txt file.
