    Why is it that only documents you are never ever likely to need ever again, get a shortcut put in "Documents" on the Start menu??

    and nothing usefull does??

    How does my PC know?

    Hey snoopy! () How are you?

    The Recent Documents List will hold mainly the files from M$ products It seams to me, but as its called Recent Documents, I would guess the shortcuts in there are the most "recent" Get it yet?

    *sigh*

    Well Mark, seems that the great British skill of cynicism is going down the pan

    BTW -- did you send me an email a few weeks ago? I'm still playing catch-up with finding out what went on

    It holds files that you double click/open from Explorer or My Computer. Also programs have the option of putting files opened from that program on that list. It also used to be that most MS products when they opened a file would put them there. I think now (ME and 2000) they changed that to be files that are opened a lot (I think more than twice)
