I'm using Windows XP Home Edition. In my work world I could see a list of
all recent documents from prior days whether of not they were saved. Can I
still do that with this version of Word?

Hi ruthieq,

Word only ever keeps a record of documents that have been opened. If you create a document but don't save it, Word doesn't keep a
record - there's actually nothing to record.

If you're referring to Word's 'Most Recently Used' list then, yes, Word 2007 keeps one - of up to 50 documents! To acces it, choose
Word Options|Advanced, scroll down to 'Display' and it's the first entry under that heading.

Dear ruthieq
if you want to keep record of your recent documents
so you must Use (ActualDoc Standerd from www.flexigensoft.com ) its a
software keep record of your recent documents
I use it for this purpose, I have record of december 2007 recent documents,
and in a second i can find a specific single file from it
because there are somany filters providing help in order to find a file
having specific extension and used on specific date and time
