Hi,

To remove files that no longer exist from the list in Word 2007, click the
Office Button, click Word Options, click Advanced, go about half-way down the
list of options, set the number in the "Display this number of recent
documents option" to a number that will shorten the list so that the deleted
file will not be included in it, and click OK. At this point the shortened
list should not include the deleted file. Then go back and set the number to
its previous value or to another number that you prefer, and click OK.

In Word 2003, on the Tools menu, click Options. On the General tab, set the
number after "Recently used file list" to a number that will shorten the list
so that the deleted file will not be included in it, and click OK. At this
point the shortened list should not include the deleted file. Then go back
and set the number to its previous value or to another number that you prefer
and click OK.
