The macro is for clearing the recent file list. To edit the SaveAs popup you
will need to edit the registry directly, to delete all or part of the
contents of the key

I think the OP is referring to the autocomplete list presented in
the Save As dialog box (at "File name"). I don't know if it is
possible to clear that list. A *Windows* setting perhaps?

The list is stored in the registry at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12\Wor d\FileMRU, from
where you can delete individual entries
or
You can use the following macro which will reset the list to your
preset preferred number of displayed documents:
Sub ClearMRU
Application.DisplayRecentFiles = True
listsize = RecentFiles.Maximum
RecentFiles.Maximum = 0
RecentFiles.Maximum = listsize
End Sub
See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm
or to edit the list see

I Word 2007 you can delete and reset the recently used files list
but lists
of all created files persists in the file name drop down, even for
files and pathways which no longer exist. There must be a way to
remove redundent files.
