How get the recent files list in PowerPoint 2007?

[csr9632]

I want to get the recent files list in PowerPoint 2007 by using PowerPoint
application object?
How can I?

Thanks.

The PowerPoint MRU has never been a part of the object model. You will need
to access the registry for that information.

Thanks Shyam Pillai!

And then, how can I access the registry of PowerPoint MRU?

Is there any sample code?

This should access the address of the first entry in recent files
Dim regstring as String
regstring = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").RegRead _
("HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Powerpoint\Recent File List\File1")

This is for 2003 (v.11) change the 11 for other versions and file number for
other entries
