Recent Documents

I am still learning how to use these DesktopX programs. Is there a way to make a recent documents list, that has the # of recent documents listed that I want? Like 30 or 40?

Windows saves the list of recent files in a folder in your "Recent Documents" folder (or something like that, I am on a Norwegian Windows system so the name is different here). In "C:\Documents and Settings\" there should be a folder with the same name as your username. The recent documents folder should be there.
You can make a script that gets the xnumber of recent files from there using the Filesystem Shell object.
