Have You Pinned Lately
Excel, PowerPoint, and Word 2007 all have Recent Documents lists on the Office Menu. You can set an option for the number (up to 50) 
of document titles to be displayed on this list. It’s a handy way of getting back to documents that you have recently worked on. You don’t need to remember where the document is. Just click the name in the Recent Documents list.
Quote of the Day
Ultimately, the only power to which man should aspire is that which he exercises over himself.
– Elie Wiesel
Even with the option set to retain 50 documents on the list, however, a document that you use only occasionally may be forced off the list if you work with a large number of different documents. Tracking down files that you use 
only once in a while can be challenging, to say the least. Did you know that you can mark a document name so that it always stays on the list?
To the right of each document name, there is a grey pushpin icon. If you click that icon, the icon will change so that it looks like it is pushed into a corkboard and the colour will change to green. A document name with the green pushpin will always stay on the Recent Documents list, regardless of how many other documents you open and close or how long since you have opened the document.
The name will not always be on the top but it will be in the Recent Documents list. So, if you only open that Greeting Card list once a year and want to find it easily next year, click its pushpin icon on the Office Menu. The next time you go to open it, that once a year document will probably be at the bottom of the list but it will still be there waiting for you to click its name so you can get ready to send next years cards.
