Cannot activate Recently used file list option- Tools/Options/Gene
The solution offered from MS Word Help {Tools/Options/General} is the correct
one except the "Field" "Recently used file list" is not in black or accessable. It is there in a faded gray font and I am unable to access it - or check the box that would allow this feature. How can I gain this feature back as I do appreciate it Please resond to Thank you David K. Cordova |

The article in question mentions Tweak UI as a possible culprit. Do you have
Tweak UI? If so, then you'll need to reenable the MRU list from there. If you don't have Tweak UI, then the problem is probably registry corruption. You might see if the steps shown here can help you get it back: http://www.officearticles.com/word/s...osoft_word.htm -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along. http://www.herbtyson.com "David K.
