For a non-code solution, try: ToolsOptionsGeneral and turn MRU off (or set
to zero) & then reverse the process to turn in on again. At that point your
MRU list should be empty but it will start rebuilding from that point
forward.

I just installed Office 2007. Word and Excel can't seem to find the recent
documents even though the files are listed. How can I clear the recent
documents list? Thanks!
