Word 2007 SP2 and XP SP3 - Recent Documents

Hello,

I don't know if there is an answer for this but I will ask. I have a client
who uses the "Recent Docs" on his Word 2007 and likes it. But he asked me
today if it could show the document locations as well as the name of the
file. He apparently works off of many network drives and locations and
doesn't know where the document is saved until he opens it in "Recent Docs".
He asked if the drive mapping location could also show up in "Recent Docs".

is this possible?

Please let me know

As I recall if you hover your mouse over the document in the list, it will
show the path.

Don't be so quick to click, and the Tooltip will display it.
