In Word (and Excel) 2007 B2TR the recent documents list is not working. If I
go to options, Advanced, the option called:
"Show this number of recent documents" is disabled. Why? How can I enable
it? Even the tooltip for it is disabled.

Send me a screenshot of this setting via email. You can get it from my
website.

Hi Kerry,

The Recently used file list can be affected by a couple of factors, including Windows settings.

This article would also apply to Office 2007
