PowerPoint 2003 - Misc

Remember More Files

SUMMARY: Quickly access up to the last nine PowerPoint 2003 presentations.

Normally, when you click the "File" menu in Microsoft PowerPoint 2003, the four last-accessed presentations are shown. This way, if you view or modify a presentation regularly, you can easily reopen it without having to navigate your computer. However, if you modify or view several presentations on a regular basis, you might rather have PowerPoint remember even more frequently-accessed files.

1. Click "Tools" - "Options".
2. When the "Options" multi-tabbed dialog box appears, click the "General" tab.
3. Next to "Recently used file list", click the up-arrow to change the four to a nine.
4. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.
