Why is "Recently Used File List" in Excel/word options unavailabl
I've recently (re) installed Office 2003 - but for some reason I cannot
display a list of recently used files in either Excel or Word (and presumably other Office apps). In the General tab under Tools/Options, I can see the checkbox to select the feature, but it is greyed out. How can I activate it ? Thanks |

One possibility:
Some anti-virus software packages have options to disable MRU lists. Also, some other utilities have options to do this. I use TweakUI and this has that option. Biff "Kizzwozz" wrote in message ...

One guess........
For Excel 2002 and 2003............ Are you running TweakUI? If so, you may have disabled the MRU lists by unchecking "maintain document history list" under the Explorer tab.

My bet is the latter
