object.RecentFilesListSize = longVal

Version added

2003

Remarks

Setting the RecentFilesListSize property is equivalent to setting the Recently used file list option on the General tab of the Options dialog box (Tools menu).

Maximum size of the recently used file list is 9 entries. Setting the RecentFilesListSize property to more than 9 entries does not display more than 9 files on the File menu.

Example

The following Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro shows how to use the RecentFilesListSize property to print the current size of the recently used file list in the Immediate window. It also shows how to get an ApplicationSettings object from the Visio Application object.

Public Sub RecentFileListSize_Example()

    Dim vsoApplicationSettings As Visio.ApplicationSettings
    Dim lngListSize As Long

    Set vsoApplicationSettings = Visio.Application.Settings
    lngListSize = vsoApplicationSettings.RecentFilesListSize

    Debug.Print lngListSize

End Sub
