Deleting File List Under Insert/Hyperlink in Word 2000

In Word 2000 under Insert/Hyperlink, Word maintains a listing of recent files or browsed pages that you can use to insert hyperlinks into your document.

Is there someway to "flush" that list, when it become so long or so outdated as to begin to lose utility for the end-user? There must be some way to do that, since I noted that my files list (either at home or work) recently was zeroed out in the last couple of weeks or months.

 

I have a partial answer for you, to delete the "Browsed Pages" list you need to clear your internet History: Tools> Internet Options>Clear History. That will get rid of the browsed pages list in the "Insert Hyperlink" dialog box in Word. I haven't found any way of deleting the Recent files list tho'.
