[2005] XML / Recent Documents

[tylerm]

I'm almost done with my studio program and need to finish implementing the recent documents feature.

I already have a functin that pulls the data from an XML file and I'm pretty positive I can easily finish the part that adds an entry to the XML file. My true problem is when I run my query function, how can I only pull the last 5 results?

XML: RecentDocuments.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FXStudio>
	<RecentProjects>
		<Project name="Document Title">FilePath</Project>
	</RecentProjects>
</FXStudio>

Basically this is what I'm trying todo:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FXStudio>
	<RecentProjects>
		<Project name="Document Title1">FilePath1</Project>
		<Project name="Document Title2">FilePath2</Project>
		<Project name="Document Title3">FilePath3</Project>
		<Project name="Document Title4">FilePath4</Project>
		<Project name="Document Title5">FilePath5</Project>
		<Project name="Document Title6">FilePath6</Project>
	</RecentProjects>
</FXStudio>

And the outputed entries:
Document Title 6
Document Title 5
Document Title 4
Document Title 3
Document Title 2

Thanks.

Well, if you are only interested in the last 5, why not only store the last 5? Wouldn't that make reading the whole list in a lot easier?

I figured since the entries will change alot, as in everytime a new document is saved, it will be added to the list. As well I'm going to make it so they can delete entries from the top 5 and thus the next entry will show up.
