No recently used file list appears, option grayed out.

Word 2002 just installed, recently used file list under "file" has no
entries. Tools>option>general>recently used file list is "grayed out." Why?

Hi, rehawk. Probably because you have been playing with TweakUI. See
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=284896 "'Most recently used' list missing
from File menu and 'Recently used file list' option unavailable in Office XP
and 2003".
