Well, you can't delete a file while you have it open and are inside of the file. Since I don't know what directory your file is in, Try this: 1. Open the file you want to delete 2. Delete all of the text 3. When you go to save it, do a "Save as" and give it a different name. 4. Exit Word 5. Open the new file you just made 6. Select "open" a new file. 7. When the window pops up to open the files from the spot you saved them, see if you can delete the old file from inside of the new one.

Okay, you're referring to the dropdown for "Filename" in the Save As dialog?
I believe this requires a Registry edit, and I'm not sure exactly which key it is that you need to delete, but there's a fairly comprehensive article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/161631. This article is for Word 97, and there's no indication that there are versions of the article for other versions of Word, but if you substitute the number of your Word version in the Registry keys given, you should be able to use the same information. The key given for the Save As dialog is My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Offi ce\8.0\Common Open Find\Microsoft Word\Settings\Save As\File Name MRU; for 8.0 you would substitute 12.0 for Word 2007, 11.0 for Word 2003, and so on backward. -- Suzanne S.

In this situation, it's not a case of *opening* more documents but of saving
more, since the MRU list in question is the one in the Filename box of the Save As dialog. -- Suzanne S.
