Remove from font list

[Uluword]

At the top of the font list on the formatting toolbar (Office Word 2003
it shows fonts you have used in the past (presumably the ten mos
recently used). I have registered on WordBanter just to ask thi
question: How do I remove fonts from this recently used list

 

[Graham Mayor]

You can turn off the recent font list by editing the registry. Copy and
paste the following to a notepad document (example shown is Word 2003).

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Word\Options]
"NoFontMRUList"="1"

Save it as FontListOff.reg
Merge it into the registry with Word closed. (right click the filename in
Windows Explorer and select Merge)

To turn it back on again

Change "NoFontMRUList"="1"
to
"NoFontMRUList"="0"

to start the list again (empty).

Graham has given you the answer you need, but note that you do not need to
register on WordBanter to ask this question. Although the Microsoft
Communities
(http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx) do
require a Windows Live ID (which you may already have), you can post to
these newsgroups using a newsreader such as Outlook Express: see
http://www.gmayor.com/MSNews.htm. For a question such as this, the
microsoft.public.word.printingfonts newsgroup is lower-traffic and more on
target.
