Message If you open an MXD or SXD, and the program crashes, next time you open up ArcMap or ArcScene the last MXD isn't listed in the recent documents list under the > File menu.

It appears that documents are added to this list during the close_document event.

Why not add them to the list during the open_document event? That way they'll be available even if the program crashes.

Thanks,
Steve
