My firm has recently upgraded to Excel 2002 from Excel 97.

One of the enhancements we've noticed is that the 'Recently Used File List'
in 2002 shows all recently used files i.e. saved files, files opened from
email attachments etc. whereas Excel 97 only displayed files that had already
been saved in excel by the user.

Is there a way to only view in the 'Recently Used File List' files that
have been saved in excel and exclude from this list files that have been
recently opened from email attachments?

In short, if you're working on your own projects and have various people
sending you lots of attachments during the day, you don't want these files
'clogging up' your recently used list (which has a limit of 9 entries).

Thanks, Keith
