For the OP

Remember that you lose all items if you do this.
I will publish a example file on my ribbon page next week with a VBA example

This example will remember the file names so you can restore the list

Hi,

Office button (aka colorful little Icon)
Excel Options
Advanced
Display section
Show this number of recent documents.

Set the value to zero.

Cheers
Andy

Ok..when I click the colorful little Icon in the left corner of EXCEL '07,
I
get a list of RECENT DOCUMENTS. I would like very much to rid myself of
this
list.

Can anyone please provide a way to do this. I've looked all over and
can't
find a setting.

Thanks.
