Okay, I see now how to do it.

Click START Put your cursor over any empty space on the menu (beneath the RUN command is a good spot). Right click Select Properties (the only option that should be present) Insure a green dot is present in the radio button next to the Start Menu option. Click the CUSTOMIZE button to the right of that option At the bottom of the resulting window put a check mark in the box next to List my most recently used documents. Click OK and then OK again. If you ever want to empty the list, return to the same point and click the Clear List button and then OK and OK again. If you follow these instructions exactly and the screens and selections do not appear as described you are probably using the Classic Start Menu Option instead of the default Start Menu option.
