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". You don't use TweakUI? Some security suite
programs and anti-spyware programs can suppress the recently used file
list like TweakUI. Look for the registry key mentioned in KB284896,
check the value, and change it if necessary.
