I would like to see in the next version of Office the option of €œFavourites€�
in the toolbar. Every month I find myself looking for spreadsheets that I
previously used last month. These items are no longer in the handy list of
last used spreadsheets and I find myself looking for them in the hierarchy of
directories.

When I use Internet Explorer I am able to add the list of frequently visited
items to my Favourites button. I would like to see the same feature built
into Excel (or any other Office Application) so I can quickly retrieve these
files in the same manner.

I'm on an XL97 machine right now, and I have a "Favorites" folder.
Check it out in the Help files.

Thank You! I have always related this feature to Web Site and not to often
used files. It works a charm.
