    I don't use the feature all that much, but I've never seen anything like
    that. Do you leave XL open all the time? Word used to have a problem
    where it read the date on startup, then used that date for updating
    fields, even if it was three days later, as long as you hadn't closed
    and reopened it.

    The recent file list is stored in
        ~:Library:Preferences:Microsoft:com.microsoft.Office.prefs.plist

     Perhaps trashing that (with all Office apps close) would help?

    I use my Work Menu add-in, but I haven't done anything with it for
    months, so I haven't posted it to my website. It adds a menu like Word's
    Work menu, with a few bells and whistles. I should probably dig it out
    and release it.
