"Recent documents"
Under the FILE menu, for Recent Documents, I thought there was a way to increase the number to more if you want, like 15 or 20 (instead of 10, the default). Isn't that right?

Hi Jack,
Since you are not subscribed to this list, which strips attachments, I
have sent you a separate email with a couple of quick screen captures to
illustrate the following:
o From the main menu select
"Tools -> Add-Ons -> History Master: List Handling".
o In the dialog (window) that opens change the "List size" option.
Dave

Hey Dave....Thanks for the advice. I did locate it, and downloaded and installed it. Now though, I can't figure out how to get it to work...to change it to always show the last 15, instead of the most recent 10.

Hi Jack,
Yes, it can be done manually by editing some configuration files, but it
is much easier and convenient to use one of the available extensions. My
own preference is the "History Master" extension:
