In Word 2002, Windows XP, after I start Word:
when I click on "View/Taskpane" a column opens on the right that shows the
previously opened documents, new documents, etc.

This used to appear automatically when I opened Word, but now I need to
specifically open it after starting Word. Where do I tell Word to have that
Task Pane appear automatically when I start it?

Help does not tell me how to do that. It only discusses the "Styles and
formatting taskpane" which I do not think is this. Under Tools\Options, I
already have under the view tab the "Startup Task Pane" selected but it must
not refer to this document taskpane because it still does not appear on
startup.

Thanks.
