How to remove a document that is a download
For Word up to 2003
If you want to delete them all then set tools options general recently used files to 0, confirm the change, then change it back to the number it was previously. See also http://www.gmayor.com/clear_recently_used_file_list.htm If you want to selectively delete, then it gets altogether more complicated, but friend and fellow MVP Greg Maxey has done all the work - see http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Recent_Files_List_Editor.htm For Word 2007, 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 again see http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Recent_Files_List_Editor.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Zonaman49 wrote: I have a document listed in my recent document list that is a download from the web and I want to stop it from doing that by deleting it.
