Default Word 2007-Pinning documents to most recent list

If you are showing 20 documents in the list and you have worked with 20
documents other that the five since last working with them, then it is those
20 documents that will appear in the list.

If you use a macro to open documents and to save new documents, you can then
set the AddtoRecentFiles attribute to False. There is no way of doing that
via the user interface however.

I've pinned several documents to my most recent documents list but they
don't
always show. For example, I have about 5 documents that I have pinned and
I'm showing 20 new documents when I click the Office button in Word.

If I have worked recently with 25 or 30 documents, but not one of the 5
that
are pinned, then the most recent 20 show, and that list doesn't always
include the 5 that are pinned.

Do I have a setting wrong somewhere? Or is this a known issue?

Thanks!
