If the document that you are looking
for was created or updated recently, you are in luck. Both Windows and many
programs keep track of your most recent documents. Click on the Start button
and hover the cursor over My Recent
Documents. This will bring up a list of the documents you most recently
worked on. Click on any one of them to open it.
You will also find that many programs
like Microsoft Word, keep a list of recent documents for your use. In Word,
click on File and you will see a list
of recent documents at the bottom. Click on any one to open it. By default older
versions of Word only keep track of the four most recently opened documents. To
increase that number, go to the Tools
menu and click on Options. On the General tab, change the Recently Used File List to nine, which
is the most you can have. Fortunately for users of Word 2007, this newer
version of Word keeps track of more recently documents automatically. Just click
on the round Office icon and a list of more than twelve recent documents will
automatically appear next to the vertical menu bar.
