I put it in a place so that I would not misplace it. I did not write down the authors name so if the author would check to see if I am correct then that would be great.

(So it might be on FAQ, I looked but could not find it. But that doesnot mean much.)
1 You need to edit one of the configuration files. Before you do that, close all OOo windows, and also make sure that the Quickstarter is closed, too. 2 Now, on your computer, search for the file "... \user\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\Common.xcu " If you find more than one file named "Common.xcu", make sure it's in the path specified here. 3 In this file, look for the line:
<node oor:name="History">
4 Now, directly after this line, add the following lines:
<prop oor:name="PickListSize" oor:type="xs:int"> <value>10</value> </prop>
5 Save.
Once you've opened and closed the next file in OOo, the list of recently opened files will have grown by one line. Its maximum number of items will be the value you've specified; in the above example that's 10. end of quote
I found 3 files, traced the path, used WordPad to do the changes as it is the text file.
It worked.

MUCHO thanks, just what I wanted!

For the life of me I cannot find where you turn on the option of having the file drop down list display the last files opened. In the 1.1.2 I'm running at home the list displays the last 4 files opened (I'd like to make it more like 8) and on my 1.1.3 at work I get no files displayed.
Can someone point me to the location that controls that info.
