I recently purchased and installed a new, larger hard drive. I decided to
install everything fresh rather than "Ghost" the old drive to the new one.
After installing Office XP Pro, the list of recent documents/files is not
displayed at the bottom of the "File" menu in any of the Office programs. I
have searched the KB to no avail with this situation. Any advice?

Thank you,
Steve McLean
