file selection at startup

[David Emerling]

Recently, when I fire up Word, the pane on the right stopped appearing where
you can select recently opened files.

How do I get that back?

Thanks!

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View | check the "Startup Task Pane"
box | OK. Or click on View | Task Pane.
