You could only do that if you were using early binding, but you're using late binding.

Given that you've already 'Set SS = Nothing', there's nothing to export. You really should leave that line until after you've finished with the object.

That all depends on what methods are available in AutoCAD (e.g. AcadApp.Quit might be a valid method) - it's not really a Word issue. Ordinarily, though, one would also expect the open file to be closed before you quit the application.
