In the Windows 7 environment:
- Open Word (either a new document or an existing one).
- The Word icon will now appear in the tray on the bottom of your screen.
- Right click on the Word icon and a list of the most recently opened Word documents will appear.
- Click on the document you want, and it will automatically open.
In the Windows XP environment:
- Open Word (either a new document or an existing one).
- Click on the “Office Button” in the upper left corner and a list of the most recently opened Word documents will appear.
- Click on the document you want, and it will automatically open.
