Recently used file list not available in Word 2003 and Excel 2003
I have office 2003 and my recently used file list (at the bottom of the file
menu) has disappeared. Have gone to Tools/general/ and the option to enable and select the number of files to be shown is grayed out and unable to be selected. Have this problem on both Excel 2003 and Word 2003. Might also exist on power point but I haven't been using that. Any help on how to get this option working again would be greatly appreciated. |

Are you using this on a corporate network? (If so, it's possible that your
administrator disabled this option.) -- Thanks, Eric Lawrence Program Manager Assistance and Worldwide Services This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

You can use TweakUI to restore the settings
For Windows XP get TweakUI from this link http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/p.../powertoys.asp Within TweakUI in the Explorer section make sure that "Maintain document history" is selected. For other versions of Windows use TweakUI 1.33 available from this link http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstati.../nttweakui.asp Select the IE tab. Click to select the "Add new documents to Documents on Start Menu " check box, and then click OK. hth Tony "Norm 5080" wrote in message ...
