Default How do I find the last document I was working on?

Word 2003 - when I open Word the list of documents under the "File" menu
shows most often opened documents not most recently opened documents. How
can I get it to list most recently opened documents instead?

Word 2003 does always show the most recently used documents on the File
menu. That's why it's called an MRU list. OTOH, if you choose Recent
Documents from the Places Bar, there's no telling what you get. I've never
figured out how Word assigns these.

Alternatively you can use last documents from the Start menu of your windows.
