Is there any way to just show the Word documents that are opened from Word &
not via email attachments (Outlook)? Thanks.

Don't open email attachments that are Word files except by saving them to
disk and opening them from there.

You can delete items from the RUFL using the kill command key combination.
See http://addbalance.com/word/workmenu.htm for details on this.

Thank you, but saving attachments to disk or deleting them after opening the
attachments is really not feasible. Is there any way to prevent them from
populating the "recently used file list" in the first place? Thanks.

Why is deleting them not feasible? It requires one keypress
(Ctrl+Alt+Hyphen) and one mouse click.

If I hold down "Ctrl" & click the "ALT" & "Hyphen" keys, I get a horizontal
black line in the Word document. Am I doing this correctly? Thanks so much
for your feedback.

Precisely. Be careful! When you click on *any* menu item, it will be
removed. For more on this, see
