SHAddToRecentDocs

[Tom]

Hi all,

I have searched this board high and low and dont see a way
to remove certain files from the Recent Docs.

I have an app that uses Word as a report generator, and
printing. But the files get put on the recent docs list,
and I dont want them to go there.

I see a way to delete them all using shAddToRecentDocs,
but I want to just remove the ones I create, or "turn off"
the feature until my app is done.

Any ideas?

Hi Tom

I would try to avoid the issue.

When you open a file use something like: Documents.Open FileName:="myfile.doc", AddToRecentFiles:=False

If you create a file and have to save it, use something like:

Dim oDocument As Document
Set oDocument = Documents.Add
oDocument.SaveAs FileName:="myfile.doc", AddToRecentFiles:=False


Hope this helps.
