How can I delete document history?
Thanks Joann, I actually had seen that already, but could not believe that I
had to actually go in and make changes to the registry to do something as simple as clearing used document data, when previous versions took care of that with a check box. How dumb is that.

How can I delete document history?
Pretty dumb. But, enough corporate users (translation: cu$tomer$) have asked
for this that I suspect a method in the UI will be forthcoming.

I have to be honest with you. In 15 years of computer usage, I've never
bothered to clear that list. I've never had a reason to do that. -- JoAnn Paules Microsoft MVP - Publisher How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "Michael Skelton" wrote in message ...

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 -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Michael Skelton wrote: Thanks Joann, I actually had seen that already, but could not believe that I had to actually go in and make changes to the registry to do something as simple as clearing used document data, when previous versions took care of that with a check box.
