    When I download web pages from the net I get a list of the downloads when I click the START button and scrool up to DOCUMENTS. However it only lists the last 15 downloads and I would like to see them all. Is there any way to tweek this so that DOCUMENTS will list them all or at least more than just 15? I use Windows 98 SE with IE v. 6.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi albert1013
    Would it not be quicker to open your download file folder and click on the top row, where it says "Last modified "?

    As far as I know, there is no easy way...perhaps no way at all...to increase the number of files listed in Start>My Documents.

    There is a workaround, though. You could make a new folder on your Desktop to keep downloaded web pages. Then point the bowser to that folder when you use the browser's "Save As." Then you can access them from the desktop when you want to look at one...or more.

    You could put that folder anywhere, of course...it's just that it'll be easier to access it on the Desktop.

    Actually, we don't want you to email..... just reply back to your thread to let us know if you got your problem solved.

    As Miz and I have said, we're not sure there IS a way to increase the number of Recently accessed documents, though we've both suggested an alternative.

    On a final note.... if you would be so kind as to go back to your other threads and respond as to whether the solutions posted for you worked, we'd be greatful.
