Most Recent File problem - Help!!
Hi, I have Excel 2000, and I have noticed that if I launch an Excel spreadsheet from Windows Explorer, or from a search box (by double-clicking it), and do some work on that spreadsheet and save it, I then find that if I later open Excel and look for the file in the MRF list under the File menu item, it is not there.http://www.excelforum.com//images/smilies/confused.gif  It appears that it will only make it into the MRF lists if I open Excel first, then use File Open to select the file, do some work and save it. So why aren't files listed that are launched externally? Or am I the only one?

The best way to insure that your file apears in the most recently opend files
is to: 1. first open Excel 2. open the file with the File Open pull-down double-clicking icons is not as reliable. -- Gary's Student "Wibs" wrote: Hi, I have Excel 2000, and I have noticed that if I launch an Excel spreadsheet from Windows Explorer, or from a search box (by double-clicking it), and do some work on that spreadsheet and save it, I then find that if I later open Excel and look for the file in the MRF list under the File menu item, it is not there.http://www.excelforum.com//images/smilies/confused.gif It appears that it will only make it into the MRF lists if I open Excel first, then use File Open to select the file, do some work and save it.
