RE: Recent documents

Hey DaveThanks for the advice.  I did locate it, and downloaded and 
installed it.  Now though, I can't figure out how to get it to work...to change 
it to always show the last 15, instead of the most recent 10.

 Hi Jack,
 
 Yes, it can be done manually by editing some configuration files, but it
 is much easier and convenient to use one of the available extensions. My
 own preference is the History Master extension:
 http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/history-master

Hi Jack,

Since you are not subscribed to this list, which strips attachments, I
have sent you a separate email with a couple of quick screen captures to
illustrate the following:

  o From the main menu select
Tools - Add-Ons - History Master: List Handling.
  o In the dialog (window) that opens change the List size option.

Dave

Downloaded and installed, but how do I get it to show more than the last 10 
files?
