There is certain Excel or Word documents that we need to
access several times for reference and for that purpose
we want them to be retrieved as quickly as possible.
Searching for such documents takes a few minutes. We
need to keep the Office 2007 documents readily available
which are frequently used. There are two ways to keep
the Office 2007 documents readily available:
1.
Pushpins
There is a
feature of Recent Documents in all Office 2007 applications. You will
notice a push pin icon in front of every item in the list called Recent
Documents. This push pin button can be used to tack the important items
in order to keep the Office 2007 documents readily available in this
list. Here we will give the example of Word 2007:
1.
Open Word.
2.
Click on the Office button on the top left.
3.
You will see the list named Recent Documents on the right side of
the menu.
4.
Click on the push pin button next to the items you want to be
always available in that list.
These
items will be tacked until you unpin them.
2.
Number of Recent Documents:
You can
change the number of items that are available in the Recent Documents
list in order to keep the Office 2007 documents readily available. If
you increase the number of items displayed in this list, you will be
able to access the documents for a longer period of time. Here we are
giving the example of Word 2007 but this method can be used for all the
Office 2007 applications:
1.
Open Word.
2.
Click on the Office button on the top left.
3.
Click on
the Word Options button at the bottom.
4.
The Word Options dialog box will appear. Click on Advanced on the
right hand side.
5.
Scroll down to the Display section.
6.
Increase the number of Recent Documents to be displayed.
7.
Click on the OK button.
You can also decrease the number of Recent Documents to be shown if that
option suits you. You can even set it to 0 if you don't want it to
display any Recent Documents.
