In MS Word, there is a box which lists available fonts available for use in
documents. At the top of this list is a group of (I assume) commonly used or
recently used fonts. How can I delete this list or edit it so my favorite
fonts are listed at the top?

There is a Registry key that governs the font MRU list. You can edit it
using one of the macros in the Support.dot template in Word 2002. See "How
to install and use the Support.dot template in Word 2002" at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=289506.

I should have mentioned the version I am using. A failure on my part. Does
this also apply to Word 2000?

Word 2000 has a Support9.dot template, which includes a macro to edit
various Registry options, including the font MRU list (you can just turn it
off or on). For more, see "WD2000: How to Turn off the Font Most Recently
Used (MRU) List" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=199785, which also
includes instructions for editing the Registry directly.
