Default I cannot find Recent Documents under the Office button

garfield-n-odie:
I tried the fix you suggested and it worked...my recent documents are back.
Thanks so very much.

If you have Windows XP, and if in the Windows XP registry the value of
the NoRecentDocsHistory key in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer\
is set to binary 01 00 00 00, then change the value to binary 00 00 00 00.

Thank you, Greg.
For some reason the "Show this number of Recent Documents" selection is
greyed out and will not let me access or change it.
Any suggestions?

You might try OfficeWord OptionsAdvancedDisplay and verify that your
display recent documents is not set to 0.

When I first installed Office Enterprise 2007 as I used Word, recent
documents were shown on the Office button page. They are no longer
there and I would like to have them shown. Anyone know what I have
to do to have them list again?
